How SmartCap’s AI-enabled smart factory achieved recognition and success [Customer Spotlight]
SmartCap is
revolutionizing the use of AI in manufacturing with a new 400,000 square foot
self-operating factory in Fort Worth, Texas. By utilizing the Internet of
Things, the automotive accessory manufacturer achieved a needed competitive
edge for the North American market.
Over 20 robots cut, bend,
weld and paint metal sheets into component parts for stainless-steel truck
caps. These robots are managed by an array of WiFi, sensors and laser beams
controlled over a local area network (LAN) to ensure a safe, streamlined working
environment.
Automated process adjustments controlled by an AI algorithm have been doubling factory output every few months.
