the technology . Instead , it has to begin with identifying the business problems , corporate objectives , and strategic goals .”
Sandvik recently acquired a minority stake in the privately owned American software company Oqton , a leading provider of AI-powered manufacturing solutions that allows manufacturers to manage , optimize , and automate their workflows .
“ This investment is in line with our strategic agenda to broaden our offering in digital manufacturing . We are looking forward to working with Oqton and finding ways to expand our offering for increased customer productivity by creating new products that take advantage of Sandvik ’ s extensive know-how about manufacturing processes and Oqton ’ s AI-powered manufacturing solutions ”, said Stefan Widing , President and CEO of Sandvik , which completed the previously announced acquisition of US-based CGTech , a leader in software for numerical control simulation , verification and optimization , at the end of last year .
Case studies :
RockMass Technologies has deployed the latest generation of sensors to capture realtime data to identify potential failure planes on rock surfaces , using handheld hardware to analyze rock surfaces and providing the data to the user within minutes ( 18 times faster than current manual methods ).
Leveraging AI capabilities is at the core of ThoroughTec ’ s simulator based training platform , where wearable sensors continuously monitor worker behaviour , generating data that is then automatically analyzed to spot problematic behavioural trends and recommend highlyfocused remedial training in a simulatorbased environment .
Ionic Engineering ’ s use of machine learning to vastly enhance image recognition used in identifying the copper grades reduces “ to negligible ” the error rate compared to employees doing the work .
Drawing on more than six years of data , Shyft Inc . is using machine learning to forecast energy peaks .
