Artificial Intelligence has been widely adopted by companies in the manufacturing sector. AI-powered applications in the manufacturing environment spans across remote maintenance, predictive and prescriptive maintenance, production and supply chain optimisation, and decision-support tools to streamline processes across the value chain.
AI tools also support research in areas related to manufacturing but can be applied to other sectors too – for example, material research, resource planning and optimisation, waste minimisation and process control. AI is also being used to increase the resilience of our manufacturing systems with simulation research to assist in “what-if” scenario analysis and managing uncertainties in an increasingly dynamic and complex manufacturing environment.
