AI factory automation that sees, predicts and adapts
We add intelligence to the lines you already run: cameras that inspect every unit, models that predict breakdowns, and automation that connects machines, MES and planning into one responsive system.
01 The challenge
Where factories lose time and margin
Manual inspection catches only what tired eyes can see, so defects slip through or good parts are scrapped. Machines fail without warning and a single stoppage ripples through the whole schedule. Planners juggle spreadsheets while the line changes faster than the plan.
Industrial AI is now practical for plants of every size. Cameras and sensors are inexpensive, models can run on edge devices next to the line, and modern integration lets AI read from PLCs and MES without replacing the control systems that already work.
02 Capabilities
What we build on the shop floor
- 01
Vision quality inspection
Camera-based defect detection on every unit at line speed — surface defects, assembly errors, labels and dimensions.
- 02
Predictive maintenance
Vibration, current and temperature models that flag bearing wear, misalignment and tool degradation before failure.
- 03
PLC and robotics integration
AI outputs wired into PLCs, robots and conveyors to sort, reject, adjust speed or trigger maintenance automatically.
- 04
Digital twins
Live models of lines and processes to test changes, simulate bottlenecks and optimise throughput before touching the floor.
- 05
Inventory and supply-chain automation
Demand forecasting, reorder automation and supplier-risk monitoring connected to your ERP.
- 06
Energy and yield optimisation
Models that tune setpoints to cut scrap and energy use per unit while keeping quality in spec.
03 How we deliver
From first conversation to systems in production
- 01
Discover
We walk the line with your engineers, review defects, downtime logs and data sources, and pick the station with the clearest payback.
- 02
Prototype
A pilot on one line or cell — for example a camera station or a set of sensors — measured against your current process.
- 03
Deploy
Industrial-grade deployment on edge hardware, integrated with PLCs, MES and ERP, with operator screens and alarm handling.
- 04
Evolve
Rollout to more lines and plants, model retraining for new products, and continuous improvement with your team.
Every engagement can run in the cloud, on-premise or fully air-gapped. Your data stays under your control, and humans stay in command of every significant decision.
04 Outcomes
What improves
- Every unit inspected, not just a sample
- Fewer unplanned stoppages and calmer maintenance planning
- Faster changeovers and better use of existing equipment
- Decisions based on live data from the floor instead of last week's report

06 FAQ
Factory & Industrial Automation: frequently asked questions
Do we need to replace our existing machines or PLCs?
No. We integrate with the equipment you have through standard industrial protocols and add cameras or sensors only where needed.
How much training data does vision inspection need?
Less than most people expect. We start with a modest set of labelled good and defective parts and improve the model as the system runs.
Can the models run without internet access?
Yes. Inspection and maintenance models typically run on edge devices at the line, with no dependency on the cloud.
Is this suitable for small and mid-sized manufacturers?
Yes. We start with a single station or machine so investment matches results, then scale.
What about the safety of automated actions?
Automated actions follow your existing safety interlocks and procedures; AI recommends or acts only within limits you approve.
Which line should we automate first?
Tell us what you want AI to take over. A senior engineer will get back to you — under NDA if you need it.
