How Deep Learning Can Boost Efficiency on Factory Floors
The future of manufacturing is here. It has been ushered by data, AI, and machine learning. Its path is being blazed by a unique collaboration among Hewlett Packard Enterprise, NVIDIA, and Seagate.
Today's manufacturing processes are complex and precise with little or no tolerance for errors.
The processes have thus far been automated mostly with robotic arms and other rule-based systems. However, that level of automation alone is not enough, as operational managers face ever increasing challenges:
"
How can we reduce investments for clean-room resources?
"
How can we cut days or, better yet, weeks from manufacturing time?
