Integration of newly developed AI assembly, production, and material flow virtual tools

We discuss the applicability of artificial intelligence virtual tools in addressing real world design for manufacturing issues and the lessons learned from experimenting with this approach. A current project that has predicted a 70% reduction in scheduling as achievable is addressed. Operation of th...

Description
Summary:We discuss the applicability of artificial intelligence virtual tools in addressing real world design for manufacturing issues and the lessons learned from experimenting with this approach. A current project that has predicted a 70% reduction in scheduling as achievable is addressed. Operation of the real production line of the project is discussed with a comparison of predicted values versus actual.
