As you may
know, AI is gradually being implemented into various industries and those
adapting and embracing these technologies can see an improvement on their
bottom lines.
For
manufacturing in particular, AI-driven robots and automation are improving
manufacturing processes, leading to increased productivity and quality control.
But should
we be implementing AI into our business processes now, or do we have a way to
go? As AI is at the early stage of its development, it’s important for
businesses to approach AI implementation with careful planning, clear goals,
and a strong emphasis on ethics and responsible AI use.
In this news
article we delve into this topic further and what us as manufacturers need to
consider and factor in.
What
is AI and CV AI?
Artificial
Intelligence (AI) is the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines
and computer systems.
Computer
vision is a field of artificial intelligence (CV AI) that enables computers and
systems to take important information from digital images, videos and other
visual inputs — and take actions or make recommendations based on that
information.
Deploying
AI at Scale
Within the
manufacturing industry, AI can help contribute in:
- •
Detecting
defects throughout the production process.
- •
Deploying
predictive maintenance to reduce downtime.
- •
Responding
to real-time changes in demand across the supply chain.
- •
Reducing
costs of small-batch or single-run goods, enabling greater customisation.
- •
Improving
employee satisfaction by shifting mundane tasks to machines.
Our Manufacturing
Process
Despite not
implementing AI into our processes just yet, we can see the potential. That
said, we’re always growing and advancing, and we continue to pride ourselves on
our sophisticated in-house manufacturing plant, based in Sutton Coldfield.
This gives
us the flexibility to customise parts and offer cost effective solutions due to
it all being done on site. Plus, we are ISO 14001 certified meaning our quality
regime is second to none, with our sustainable agenda at the forefront of our
processes.
Choosing
The Right Manufacturer For You
We are a
proactive, diligent company and we are certainly not ignoring AI but on a large
capacity, this investment will take careful planning to come into fruition. We
care about our clients and the services that we offer so we are keen to
constantly listen to them and use our expertise to keep the business
thriving.
