Künstliche Intelligenz in der Produktion von Werkstoffen (Artificial Intelligence in the Production of Materials)

Björn Glaser & Robert Vikman

Some 230 persons from the entire steel industry (mainly Austrians) took part in the workshop "Künstliche Intelligenz in der Produktion von Werkstoffen - Artificial Intelligence in the Production of Materials". More than 70 individuals from the Austrian steel industry and industry related organisations have shown interest to become members of the ASMET Digitalisation committee (equivalent to Jernkontoret's TO 60). All in all, eleven presentations were made during the one-day event.

The most important conclusions that can be drawn are that AI will be useful for a lot of processes going on in the steel industry, e.g. production monitoring as well as for laboratory work. A deep team work between process experts, data analysists and data infrastructure builders is essential for making AI projects successful.
