Abstract

The article discusses the importance of smart production during the progress of Industry 4.0 and the challenges that Big Data analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) tools face. Using AI tools, such as predictive maintenance, production optimisation and quality control systems, can improve production efficiency, quality and safety. This article also highlights the goals of AI technologies, such as reducing production downtimes, optimising production, improving product quality and safety, and increasing automation to achieve the zero-defect philosophy. It concludes that applying AI solutions can help to reduce defects, waste and errors in production processes, which will result in increasing the efficiency and quality of production processes.
