Purpose: The purpose of this study is to derive major policies that domestic small and medium-sized manufacturing companies should consider to maximize productivity and quality improvement by utilizing manufacturing data and AI, and to find priorities and implications. Methods: In this study, domestic and international issues and literature review by country were conducted to derive major considerations such as manufacturing AI technology, manufacturing AI talent, manufacturing AI data and manufacturing AI ecosystem. Additionally, the questionnaire survey targeting 46 experts of manufacturing data and AI industry were conducted. Finally, the major considerations and detailed factors importance were derived by applying the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). Results: As a result of the study, it was found that 'manufacturing AI technology', 'manufacturing AI talent', 'manufacturing AI data', and 'manufacturing AI ecosystem' exist as key considerations for domestic manufacturing AI. After empirical analysis, the importance of the four key considerations was found to be 'manufacturing AI ecosystem (0.272)', 'manufacturing AI data (0.265)', 'manufacturing AI technology (0.233)', and 'manufacturing AI talent (0.230)'. The importance of the derived four viewpoints is maintained at a similar level. In addition, looking at the detailed variables with the highest importance for each of the four perspectives, 'Best Practice', 'manufacturing data quality management regime, 'manufacturing data collection infrastructure', and 'manufacturing AI manpower level of solution providers' were found. Conclusion: For the sustainable growth of the domestic manufacturing AI ecosystem, it should be possible to develop and promote manufacturing AI policies in a balanced way by considering all four derived viewpoints. This paper is expected to be used as an effective guideline when developing policies for upgrading manufacturing through domestic manufacturing data and AI in the future.

The future society will be changed through an artificial intelligence (AI) based intelligent revolution. To prepare for the future and strengthen industrial competitiveness, countries around the world are implementing various policies and strategies to utilize AI in the manufacturing industry, which is the basis of the national economy. Manufacturing AI technology should ensure accuracy and reliability in industry and should be explainable, unlike general-purpose AI that targets human intelligence. This paper presents the future shape of the "autonomous factory" through the convergence of manufacturing and AI. In addition, it examines technological issues and research status to realize the autonomous factory during the stages of recognition, planning, execution, and control of manufacturing work.

디스플레이 분야에 스마트 팩토리란 작업 자동화 뿐만 아니라 기존의 공정관리, 이동설비, 공정이상, 결함 분류 등에 AI/BIG DATA 기술을 이용한 보다 효율적인 디스플레이 제조를 의미한다. 과거 디스플레이 제조 과정에서 불량이 나오면 결함 분류, 공정 이상에 대한 대처가 시시각각 달랐기 때문에 이에 대한 많은 시간 소모가 발생했었다. 하지만 디스플레이 제조 분야는 고도화된 공정 장비를 이용해야 하고 불량 원인을 신속하게 파악해 수율을 올리는 것이 디스플레이 제조 산업의 경쟁력이다. 본 논문에는 스마트 팩토리 AI/BIG DATA 기술을 디스플레이 제조에 접목한 사례들에 대해 정리해 보고 기존 방법 대비 어떤 장점이 도출 되어질 수 있는지에 대해 처음으로 분석해 보고자 한다. 이를 통해 향후 AI/BIG DATA를 이용한 디스플레이 제조 분야에 보다 향상된 스마트 팩토리 개발을 위한 사전지식으로 활용하고자 한다.

본 연구는 중소 제조기업의 제조AI 활용의도에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 TOE 프레임워크을 적용하여 중소 제조기업의 특성을 반영한 기술·조직·환경 및 경영자특성 요인을 중심으로 독립변수들을 선정하고 실증분석하였다. 또한 활용의도에 대한 기술신뢰의 매개효과와 공장소재지의 조절효과를 분석하였으며 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 독립과 종속변수 사이의 관계에서 호환성을 제외하고 나머지 6개 독립변수(복잡성, 조직혁신성, IT활용능력, 경쟁압력, 파트너지원, 경영자혁신성)의 종속변수(활용의도)에 대한 직접효과는 모두 통계적으로 유의한 결과로 나타났으며, 그중 경영자혁신성의 상대적 영향력이 가장 크게 나타났다. 둘째, 기술신뢰는 호환성과 활용의도 사이에서 완전매개효과를, 그리고 경영자혁신성과 활용의도 사이에서 부분매개효과를 나타내는 것으로 검증되었다. 셋째, 조절효과 분석을 위해 다중집단분석(수도권과 비수도권)을 진행한 결과, 수도권 소재 기업들이 복잡성과 조직혁신성, IT활용능력, 경쟁압력, 파트너지원과 활용의도 사이의 경로에서 통계적 유의성을 가지고 상대적 활용의도가 높게 나타났으며, 비수도권 기업은 경영자혁신성과 활용의도 사이에서 유의성을 확인할 수 있었다. 이를 통해 제조AI 활용에 있어 경영자혁신성의 중요성과 함께, 조직구성원의 기술신뢰를 통한 제조AI에 대한 이해와 인식의 확대, 지역차이 극복을 위한 다양한 연구과 정책이 필요함을 시사하고 있다.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is expected to bring about a wide range of changes in the industry, based on the assessment that it is the most innovative technology in the last three decades. The manufacturing field is an area in which various artificial intelligence technologies are being applied, and through accumulated data analysis, an optimal operation method can be presented to improve the productivity of manufacturing processes. In addition, AI technologies are being used throughout all areas of manufacturing, including product design, engineering, improvement of working environments, detection of anomalies in facilities, and quality control. This makes it possible to easily design and engineer products with a fast pace and provides an efficient working and training environment for workers. Also, abnormal situations related to quality deterioration can be identified, and autonomous operation of facilities without human intervention is made possible. In this paper, AI technologies used in smart factories, such as the trends in generative product design, smart workbench and real-sense interaction guide technology for work and training, anomaly detection technology for quality control, and intelligent manufacturing facility technology for autonomous production, are analyzed.

개조한 가스 금속 아아크 용접공정을 이용하여 SiC/AI 금속기 복합재료를 제조하고 그 특성을 조사하였다. AI 모재위에 강화입자의 크기와 부피분율을 변화하여 다양한 SiC/AI 복합재료층을 제조하였고, 만들어진 복합재료층의 특성은 미세조직관찰과 미소경도시험을 통하여 이루어졌다. 복합재료층의 두께는 약 7-8mm로 측정되었고 균일한 강화입자의 분포도를 얻을 수 있었다. 분산입자의 부피분률은 Ar가스의 유량에 의하여 조절하였고 분산입자의 부피분률이 증가하고 크기가 작아짐에 따라 기지의 수지상 응고조직은 더욱 미세화되었다. 복합재료의 부피경도는 분산입자의 부피분률이 감소함에 따라 낮아졌으나 입자 크기에는 크게 변화가 없는 것으로 나타났다.

Recently, the focus of research interest in artificial intelligence technology has shifted from algorithm development to application domains. Industrial sectors such as smart manufacturing, transportation, and logistics venture beyond automation to pursue digitalization of sites for intelligence. For example, smart manufacturing is realized by connecting manufacturing sites, autonomous reconfiguration, and optimization of manufacturing systems according to customer requirements to respond promptly to market needs. Currently, KSB Convergence Research Department is developing BeeAI-an on-site end-to-end intelligence platform. BeeAI offers end-to-end service pipeline configuration and DevOps technologies that can produce and provide intelligence services needed on-site. We are hopeful that in future, the BeeAI technology will become the base technology at various sites that require automation and intelligence.

Various aspects of artificial intelligence (AI) have become of significant interest to academia and industry in recent times. To satisfy these academic and industrial interests, it is necessary to comprehensively investigate trends in AI-related changes of diverse areas. In this study, we identified and predicted emerging convergences with the help of AI-associated research abstracts collected from the SCOPUS database. The bidirectional encoder representations obtained via the transformers-based topic discovery technique were subsequently deployed to identify emerging topics related to AI. The topics discovered concern edge computing, biomedical algorithms, predictive defect maintenance, medical applications, fake news detection with block chain, explainable AI and COVID-19 applications. Their convergences were further analyzed based on the shortest path between topics to predict emerging convergences. Our findings indicated emerging AI convergences towards healthcare, manufacturing, legal applications, and marketing. These findings are expected to have policy implications for facilitating the convergences in diverse industries. Potentially, this study could contribute to the exploitation and adoption of AI-enabled convergences from a practical perspective.

Smart manufacturing is a process of integrating computer-related technologies in production and by doing so, achieving more efficient production management. The recent development of supercomputers has led to the broad utilization of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning techniques useful in predicting specific patterns. Despite the usefulness of AI and machine learning techniques in smart manufacturing processes, there are many fundamental issues with the direct deployment of these technologies related to data management. In this paper, we focus on solving the outlier detection issue in smart manufacturing applications. More specifically, we apply a state-of-the-art outlier detection technique, called Elliptic Envelope, to detect anomalies in simulation-based collected data.
