Abstract

The development and integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications for Industrial Machines (IMs) has been increasing, transforming manual operational processes into semi- or fully automated ones. Time-consuming and specialized tasks can now be assisted by intelligent systems that support or replace machine operators, with the potential of improving efficiency and lowering costs. Establishing a standardized procedure for configuring and calibrating new IMs proves challenging due to the inherent divergences among manufacturers, client-specific requirements and adaptations, and the distinctive characteristics of various application fields. This paper presents an overview of the emerging applications of AI applications for 1M calibration and configuration processes, highlighting the transformative impact of AI on enhancing operational efficiency, reducing downtime, and improving overall performance in industrial settings compared to traditional approaches to machine setup and optimization. This work is being developed in the AIDEAS project, where it will be implemented in a pilot with Computer Numerical Control (CNC) IMs.
