ALCHEMIX generative AI for brake-pad formulas
Brembo's ALCHEMIX cut the time to draft new brake-pad formulas from days to minutes, the company says
Problem
Developing new friction-material formulas took researchers days of work.
Approach
Brembo built ALCHEMIX on Microsoft's Azure OpenAI service and put it into R&D at the Brembo Inspiration Lab in Silicon Valley. It generates new brake-pad formulas. Researchers use it to explore unusual development paths, catch errors early and refine formulas. Brembo presented it at the Microsoft AI Tour in Rome in October 2024.
Results
Takeaway
The gain Brembo reported is in drafting time. The article gives no figures on how many formulas reached production.
