Future-forward manufacturing!

The unfortunate reality is a global shortage of production staff, as seasoned professionals age and younger generations struggle to match the demand. Fortunately, Deltia.ai addresses these challenges through powerful computer vision and AI fusion. The most promising news is that Deltia.ai has joined our portfolio, and we’re more than enthusiastic about supporting them in spearheading the fourth industrial revolution!

Shifting dynamics: The evolving face of global manufacturing

The global manufacturing landscape is undergoing notable changes with a discernible shift toward localised production hubs. This trend is driven by a growing awareness of supply chain vulnerabilities exposed during the COVID-19 pandemic, prompting companies to prioritise resilience and agility. Both Europe and the United States are grappling with skilled labour shortages, impacting various industries. The shortage is particularly acute in sectors requiring specialised skills, such as advanced manufacturing.

Efficiency unleashed: Deltia.ai’s impact on manufacturing processes

Deltia.ai employs visual digitisation to convert manual production processes, encompassing tasks like assembly, packaging, and machinery adjustments, into digital formats. The meticulously designed algorithm scrutinises elements such as hand movements and cycle times, suggesting improvements by identifying unnecessary steps. The refined processes documented by Deltia.ai prove invaluable for training purposes. The company caters to machinery manufacturing, electronics production, and logistics clients. Implementing Deltia.ai’s solutions results in a noteworthy 10–30% increase in productivity and a substantial 20–50% reduction in training time for new employees.

The core technology of Deltia.ai draws inspiration from successful approaches used in the self-driving car industry, where perception systems play a pivotal role in automated driving features. Deltia.ai has created a system that trains and deploys a category of lightweight neural networks directly within factories through edge devices. Crucially, the data remains within the factory, mitigating security and privacy risks.

Balancing acts: The future landscape of manufacturing with Humans and AI in harmony

The future of manufacturing envisions a harmonious collaboration between humans and AI tools, creating a synergy that capitalises on the strengths of both entities. While AI will excel in automating routine tasks, executing predictive analytics, and optimising precision-driven processes, humans will remain indispensable for tasks requiring nuanced judgment, creativity, and adaptability. In this landscape, some highly complex manual tasks will still necessitate human involvement, leveraging the unique cognitive abilities and dexterity that machines may struggle to emulate. This blend of human expertise and AI support not only ensures the retention of irreplaceable skills but also fosters a dynamic and resilient manufacturing environment. By acknowledging the distinct strengths of each collaborator, the future of manufacturing embraces a holistic approach where humans and AI jointly contribute to innovation, efficiency, and the successful execution of intricate tasks within the production process.

Max’ and Silviu’s profound technical knowledge, combined with their extensive experience, vision for the future of manufacturing, and exceptional quality of their product, have thoroughly persuaded us. We are confident that Deltia.ai is poised to play a significant role in catalysing the onset of the fourth industrial revolution. It is an honour for us to be part of this journey alongside them!
