Relatechand EFA Automation (part of the Group) faithful to the innovative vocation that has always distinguished them, this year too they will be a SPS Italy with nothing short of revolutionary innovations. Their presence will be tangible for all those who pass by stand G005 – Pavilion 5 where they can marvel at the power of artificial intelligence applied to industrial processes.
AI is now fully part of the OT world in the industrial sector
It is a fact that AI has now become part of the lexicon of the OT world. However, it still remains to be seen and demonstrated how and to what extent this disruptive technology is actually applied in the industrial sector today. This is the principle that guided Relatech and its subsidiary EFA Automazione in the choice to bring to SPS a machine that concretely shows how AI and its innovative ability to interact with man are already a reality which, in addition to revolutionizing industrial paradigms known to us, will bring great advantages, many of which are yet to be discovered.
The principle that guides the demonstration is resolved in the satisfaction of a specific request. The visitor will be served by a robotic pick and place that will hand out a glass full of those cherries.”Vignola temptresses” which for years have made a visit to the EFA-Relatech stand enjoyable.
Amazing strides in the interaction between humans and technology
But this is where it all begins. The interaction with humans, which is vocal and which can take place in any language known to us, complements and enhances the current standards of human-machine interfacing thanks to the AI factor, which for the first time is on-board: l In fact, the user has access to knowledge that is not the result of predetermined learning. This is an unprecedented type of interfacing that allows man to interact with an entity that has access not only to all field data but also to universal knowledge. Thanks to artificial intelligence, man can obtain, by virtue of unprecedented computational speed and logical capacity, accurate and contextualized information, which is the result of real-time data processing and analysis, the use of which is however disruptive compared to the traditional interfacing concept offered by a current HMI.
The demo shows how AI can integrate into traditional HMIs as an “extension” of the same, which thus equipped are able to respond to the needs of an increasingly digital and interconnected world, thanks to conversational and data analysis capabilities that improve efficiency, and at the same time they simplify the use of the machines by operators.
Demo: served by a robotic arm
Using natural language in the installation that will be shown in SPS, it will be possible to request to be served by a robotic arm and, at the same time and with the same simple interaction method, query the machine to receive information on the main KPIs and performance execution.
Without a shadow of a doubt, the capacity of this machine which, by way of example, shows the power of AI applied to industrial processes, is the result of expertise and know-how that cannot be improvised. Behind this technology there is in fact the many years of expertise and the sum of the end-to-end offer that Relatech and EFA Automazione are today able to offer to all companies that have undertaken or want to undertake a path of complete and secure, including aspects relating to IT security as an integral part. These are the same companies that believe in innovation and the interaction between man and technology, as an essential condition for remaining competitive in a market context that has never been as complex as the current one.
The road of innovation leads to stand G005 in Pavilion 5 Where Relatech and EFA Automation are waiting for you to browse and share with all of you this new and exciting chapter in the evolution of the industrial paradigm of the future.
