Sectoral AI Centre of Excellence for Manufacturing (AIMfg): Driving Innovation in Manufacturing


Unlocking Industry Benefits with AIMfg

Manufacturing companies may often face difficulties adopting AI solutions due to many factors. These include a shortage of expertise in both the manufacturing domain and AI knowledge, and the lack of know-how and platforms to experiment with and test-bed AI solutions.

Launched in end-September 2024, AIMfg brings together expertise in AI and the manufacturing domain with its various use cases. This initiative will actively convene and collaborate with ecosystem stakeholders across industry, research and government, leveraging A*STAR’s capabilities in AI technologies, including Generative AI and Large Language Models, to develop and deploy impactful solutions for businesses. 

Our focus begins with five areas within the manufacturing value chain where AI can make an impact.  
  • AI for Quality Assurance
  • AI for Operations Optimisation
  • AI for Predictive Maintenance
  • AI for Product / Component Design
  • AI for Industrial Automation
