Build virtual factories with Foxconn Industrial Internet, Innodisk, Pegatron, Quanta, Wistron, simulate robotics, automate inspections with NVIDIA Omniverse, Isaac Sim, Metropolis
Computex—NVIDIA today announced that electronics manufacturers around the world are advancing their industrial digitization journey with a new comprehensive reference workflow that combines NVIDIA technologies for generative AI, 3D collaboration, simulation and autonomous machines. Did.
This workflow, supported by an extensive partner network, helps manufacturers plan, build, operate, and optimize factories using a range of NVIDIA technologies. These include: NVIDIA Omniverse™ connects top computer-aided design apps, APIs, and cutting-edge frameworks for generative AI.of NVIDIA Isaac Sim™ Applications for robot simulation and testing.and the NVIDIA Metropolis Vision AI framework enables automated optical inspection.
in him Keynote speech at COMPUTEXNVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang demonstrated the industry’s first fully digital smart factory for an electronics manufacturer.
“The world’s largest industries manufacture physical things. Building digitally first can save enormous costs,” Huang said. “NVIDIA enables electronics manufacturers to build and operate virtual factories, digitize manufacturing and inspection workflows, and significantly improve quality and safety while reducing costly last-minute surprises and delays. It becomes easier.”
World’s Leading Electronics Manufacturer Embraces Digitization with NVIDIA
The new reference workflow is being used by Foxconn Industrial Internet, Innodisk, Pegatron, Quanta and Wistron to optimize workcell and assembly line operations while reducing production costs.
Foxconn Industrial Internet, the service arm of the world’s largest technology manufacturer, is working with NVIDIA Metropolis ecosystem partners to automate critical aspects of circuit board quality assurance inspection points.
Tai-Yu Chou, CTO of Foxconn Industrial Internet, said: “NVIDIA’s strength in AI and a strong ecosystem of application partners provides Foxconn Industrial Internet with a path to significant operational efficiency gains.” We can now reach our industrial automation goals faster than we could have ever imagined.”
Innodisk deploys NVIDIA Metropolis to automate the optical inspection process on its production line, saving costs and improving production efficiency.
PegatronAs a leading electronics manufacturer and service provider, Reference workflow Digitize your circuit board factory with simulation, robotics and automated production inspection.
“Thanks to NVIDIA Omniverse, Isaac Sim, and Metropolis, we will be able to run AI training, power factory workflows, and run dozens of simulations in the virtual world before deciding on an idea in the physical world,” says Software. said Andrew Hsiao, vice president of charge. Research and development department of Pegatron. “By digitizing the entire factory, we are able to simulate the robotics and automation pipeline end-to-end, allowing us to try things out in a simulated environment, saving time and reducing costs. We can reduce it significantly.”
Quanta, a major manufacturer of laptops and other electronic hardware, uses subsidiary AI robots techman robot To inspect the quality of manufactured products. Techman leverages Isaac Sim to simulate, test, and optimize cutting-edge collaborative robots, while using NVIDIA AI and GPUs for inference on the robots themselves.
Wistron, one of the world’s largest suppliers of telecommunications products, leverages NVIDIA Omniverse to digital twin Collect automated incoming line and operational building information using input from Autodesk AutoCAD, Autodesk Revit, and FlexSim. Wistron also uses NVIDIA Metropolis to automate some optical inspection of circuit boards using AI-enabled computer vision.
Industrial Ecosystem Flocks to NVIDIA Technology
NVIDIA works with several leading manufacturing tool and service providers to build a single, full-stack architecture at every workflow level.
At the system level, NVIDIA IGX Olin™ provides an all-in-one edge AI platform that combines industrial-grade hardware with enterprise-level software and support. IGX delivers the high performance needed to develop and run AI applications while meeting the unique endurance and low power requirements of edge computing.
manufacturer partner ad drink, Advantech, Aetina, dedicated computing, onyx, prodrive technologies and Yuan We develop IGX powered systems to serve the industrial and medical markets. These systems allow the benefits of digitization to be realized during physical production.
Omniverse connects the world’s leading 3D, simulation and generative AI providers at the platform level. For example, an open development platform allows teams to build interoperability between their favorite applications from Adobe, Autodesk, Siemens, and more.
The COMPUTEX keynote demo showcased Omniverse connected to various AI assistants such as ChatGPT and Blender GPT to simplify 3D workflows and Python application development. NVIDIA Omniverse CloudPlatform as a Service is now available Microsoft Azurewill give enterprise customers access to a full-stack suite of Omniverse software applications and NVIDIA OVX infrastructure with the scale and security of Azure cloud services.
And at the application level, Isaac Sim enables companies to build and optimally deploy AI-based robots.Manufacturers can cooperate with industrial automation companies READY Robotics Robot tasks can be programmed in simulation before deployment in the real world. Our simulation technology partners include: soft serve and FS studio Shorten customer development timelines by building digital twin-based simulations.
Also at the application level, NVIDIA Metropolis includes a collection of factory automation AI workflows that enable industrial solution providers and manufacturers to develop customized quality control solutions that save costs and increase production throughput. , can be deployed and managed. A large ecosystem of partners including ADLINK, Aetina, Deloitte, Quantiphi and Siemens help bring these solutions to market.
