The latest advance in artificial intelligence (AI) technology enables rapid reconfiguration of a manufacturing systems to switch from the production of one product to another
About
The aim of this innovation is to eliminate intercontinental supply chains in order to save energy and reduce generation of CO2, by moving production as close as possible to points of demand. Advances in AI technology enable economically viable designs of small versatile manufacturing systems that can rapidly be switched between producing different products within a limited range and thus exhibit adaptability to unpredictable changes in demand.
Key Benefits
Key benefits: 1 saving energy and reducing generation of CO2 by moving manufacturing closer to demand and thus eliminating intercontinental supply chains 2 renewing the UK manufacturing industry by eliminating the need for outsourcing manufacturing plants to remote parts of the planet.
Applications
production of household goods production of medical equipment production of car batteries production of electric cars
