WorkingCompany's own claim

Problem

Vehicle production required coordination between assembly and material movement. Late detection of production issues created rework.

Approach

HMGICS launched in 2023 with production cells where people worked alongside robots. Mobile robots moved parts, while a digital twin reflected live factory conditions. AI inspection identified potential issues before rework was needed.

Results

67%assembly automation reported by HMGICSCompany's own claim[1]
around 68%logistics automation reported by HMGICSCompany's own claim[1]

Takeaway

The reported automation shares covered the wider factory system. They did not isolate the contribution of AI inspection.
