Challenge
Engineers and technical designers often face the challenge of navigating through hundreds of pages of instructions, standards, and guidelines, which can be time-consuming and disengaging. Given the complexity of design tasks, finding relevant information from a vast array of standards and documents can slow down processes and drain valuable time and resources.
Solution
An AI-powered assistant designed to streamline engineering tasks and problem-solving. Leveraging engineering standards, and other relevant documents as its data sources, the assistant is available in eight languages and offers features including:
- A user-friendly, conversational AI interface for natural language queries.
- Advanced search functionality to find information based on meaning, including data from graphs and tables.
- User prompt optimization for more relevant, insightful responses.
Benefits
- Higher productivity: Engineers and technical designers can spend less time searching for information and more time on creative, value-added tasks.
- Enhanced engineering quality: By ensuring access to the most accurate and up-to-date standards and instructions, the assistant helps avoid design errors and identifies optimal solutions.
- Reduced project risks: With the right instructions, standards, and directives always available, the risk of missteps and costly mistakes is minimized.
Challenge:
Supplier-provided PDF drawings often lack searchable metadata, with only the filename available, which does not reflect the actual content. This absence of relevant metadata slows down processes and increases the workload for experts who must manually search and manage these drawings.
Solution:
By automating the extraction of metadata, this solution significantly reduces the manual effort required, enhances data accuracy, and enables professionals to focus on higher-value tasks. This results in a more efficient workflow, improved user experience, and substantial time savings.
Benefits:
- Streamline workflows: Enhance process efficiency by automating metadata extraction and reducing manual searching and management tasks.
- Boost productivity: Accelerate processes and reduce time spent on manual tasks, leading to significant time savings.
- Enhance data quality: Ensure more accurate and reliable metadata, supporting better decision-making and performance.
Challenge: The traditional method of identifying hotspots from various sizes and formats of manufacturing drawings is manual and time-consuming. This creates bottlenecks and increases the workload for experts who need to manually search and manage the drawings.
Solution: By automating the extraction of hotspots, the solution reduces the workload for experts, enhances data quality, and allows professionals to focus on their core tasks. This leads to a more efficient process, improved user experience, and significant time savings.
Benefits:
- Eliminate process delays: Improve efficiency by automating tasks and reducing manual searching and hotspot identification.
- Enhance user experience: Boost employee satisfaction.
- Improve quality of output: Raise the standard of deliverables.
Challenge: Companies in the industrial sector aim to harness AI to achieve goals such as improving operational efficiency, increasing scalability, optimizing workflows, and reducing costs. Reaching these objectives requires tailored approaches that align with their unique processes and industry-specific demands. Unlocking the full potential of AI and data demands deep expertise and solutions designed to address complex, real-world challenges.
