Leveraging generative AI and foundation models, manufacturing initiatives in two German plants from Bosch utilize synthetic images to expedite AI solution development. This approach significantly accelerates the timeline from project planning to AI deployment, condensing it from months to a matter of weeks. Research to production achieved 6% energy reduction, 9% fewer rejects, and 10% system efficiency improvement.
Expanding synthetic data services to all sites follows successful pilots. Chairman Stefan Hartung, from Bosch, underscores AI adoption benefits, citing substantial cost savings and heightened productivity. Savings range from hundreds of thousands to low millions annually, varying with plant size and production scale.
Pilot plants deploy Artificial Intelligence for seamless transitions from low-scale testing to serial production in production planning, monitoring, and control. In Hildesheim, the plant cut cycle times by 15% in new line production ramp-up, thanks to AI-driven data analysis. Similarly, the plant in Stuttgart-Feuerbach reduced component testing processes from 3.5 minutes to 3 minutes, using new algorithms.
At the plant in Hildesheim, synthetically generated images have already been successfully used for training in the first series of systems in electric motor production. The artificially generated images cannot be distinguished from real images with the human eye.
