Artificial intelligence (AI) has been on everybody’s lips since the triumphant launch of the ChatGPT chatbot. AI is also making great strides in industrial production technology. Machine learning can increase the efficiency of manufacturing. But just how does it work? Find out how at EMO Hannover 2023, from 18 to 23 September. Under the banner of "Innovate Manufacturing", the world's leading trade fair for production technology will be inspiring its trade audience by presenting plenty of fresh ideas, with artificial intelligence featuring prominently. Can production machines really self-optimize? Can they learn from their mistakes? And is it possible for them to acquire know-how from other machines? Artificial intelligence (AI) makes all of this possible. When self-learning production machines function intelligently, this leads to greater productivity, lower costs, improved quality and reduced downtimes. "We have spent a great deal of time on optimizing our production technology processes and have built up a competitive edge here. We now want to do the same in the digital transformation of industrial production," explains Markus Spiekermann, Head of the Data Economy Department at the Fraunhofer Institute for Software and Systems Engineering ISST. “Artificial intelligence is playing a decisive role in meeting the new requirements, " says Spiekermann. "Because only through the use of AI methods can high levels of automation be achieved."
