Artificial Intelligence (AI) for the Smart Factory

How is artifial intelligence used in the Smart Factory?

The use of AI in manufacturing is a game changer and can offer a decisive competitive advantage. AI in the Smart Factory is about analyzing and predicting events as well as planning orders and resources. Together with the subsidiary AIMES, MPDV offers smart applications with artificial intelligence. They help transform your production into a Smart Factory and implement Industry 4.0 in daily routines.

AI-based solutions are an essential factor in the manufacturing IT of the future

~ Thorsten Strebel –Managing Director at AIMES

Why is AI a real benefit for the Smart Factory?

The success of artificial intelligence is based on three elements:

  • The need to analyze large amounts of data in an automated way increases exponentially.
  • The amount of available data is growing every day, which makes it almost impossible to manually analyze this data.
  • The required computing power is available and affordable today.

    Fields of application for AI in manufacturing

    In the Smart Factory, artificial intelligence is being applied in three major areas: analysis, prediction, and planning. The standardized information model of the Manufacturing Integration Platform (MIP) creates a consistent level of data interpretation. It is thus possible to provide AI standard applications that our customers can implement and use with little effort.

    • Analytics

      Large data volumes are no problem for AI. The artificial intelligence quickly identifies correlations and clearly visualizes them. The results help the Smart Factory increase productivity, produce less scrap, and shorten lead times.

    • Prediction

      Looking into the future is another discipline where artificial intelligence is successfully used. Predictions are usually based on the analysis of historical data. In the process, a model is created for the system behavior of the past, which can be used to predict the future system behavior. AI predicts events and outcomes and also suggests action to be taken.

    • Planning & Optimization

      Detailed scheduling is considered the supreme discipline of manufacturing IT and can also benefit from artificial intelligence. Complex order scenarios are optimally planned with AI. Artificial intelligence not only incorporates orders and machines in the planning, but also other resources such as tools, material, energy, and personnel. Bottlenecks are automatically identified and integrated into the perfect planning. This means that the planning quality far surpasses previous algorithms. Freed capacities can be used for new orders. This will significantly increase the performance of the Smart Factory. Whereas today's planning is typically made per department or area, AI is able to create a comprehensive and optimized planning integrating the entire production and even multiple sites.

AI-based standard applications of MPDV

The AI Suite from MPDV bundles a wide range of applications that use artificial intelligence to make life easier in everyday manufacturing and ensure greater competitiveness.
