In this project, when factory equipment specifications are entered in natural language, a language model with approximately 30B parameters automatically generates highly accurate ladder programs, aiming to significantly reduce design and development hours. Airion will continue to leverage generative AI to further contribute to improving productivity on the manufacturing floor.
