Schneider Electric, a global digital transformation expert in energy management and automation, has entered into a strategic partnership with Hailo Technologies, a leading artificial intelligence (AI) chip manufacturer. Based on the significant advantages of AI technology in industrial automation system performance optimization, efficiency improvement and function enhancement, the two parties will integrate Hailo advanced processor products into Schneider Electric's industrial automation solutions, aiming to empower enterprises in various industry segments to respond to future challenges more calmly and build their core competitiveness.
The collaboration between Schneider Electric and Hailo Technologies was showcased at the SPS show in Nuremberg, Germany.
By integrating the Hailo-8 AI processor into the industrial automation solution, Schneider Electric is able to further improve the efficiency and intelligence of the industrial edge control level, helping enterprise customers enhance their innovation capabilities. At the same time, with the support of AI technology, enterprises can also achieve significant optimization of production and manufacturing in a short period of time
Pick & Place Operation: Compared to the traditional processor (CPU), the object detection response speed is 6 times faster.
Quality control: Compared with CPUs, the classification process runs 20 times faster.
Yield optimization: Increase yield and throughput, and reduce waste by an average of 15%.
As a leader in AI chips for edge devices, Hailo Technologies is committed to applying advanced technologies to help customers in industries such as automotive, retail, and manufacturing create new computing capabilities. Its Hailo-8 processor is an efficient, compact and low-power AI processor with powerful performance to achieve real-time, high-precision data analysis at the edge control level.
Eyal Barnea, Vice President of Business Development at Hailo Technologies, said: "We are very proud to enter into a strategic partnership with Schneider Electric. Schneider Electric not only maintains a keen market insight, but also is the first practitioner in the industry to integrate AI technology into industrial automation solutions. With Hailo's advanced AI technology base, Schneider Electric will be able to create new, more powerful and cost-effective intelligent AI solutions with greater agility and ease. ”
"Schneider Electric is committed to working with industry-leading enterprise partners to create high-quality, cutting-edge solutions," said Aurelien Lesant, Senior Vice President, Innovation & Technology and Chief Technology Officer, Industrial Automation, Schneider Electric. This in-depth cooperation with Hailo will help us deepen our technological innovation and next-generation technology research and development, and also mark a key step for Schneider Electric to create energy-efficient intelligent solutions, thereby laying a solid foundation for accelerating the future industry. ”
Recently, at the Intelligent Production Solutions Exhibition (SPS) held in Nuremberg, Germany, Schneider Electric showed the audience the latest products and solutions integrating Hailo Technologies' advanced processors, and shared how to use multi-carrier machine applications, robotics and AI technology to quickly and efficiently perform the picking operation of circuit board chips, providing innovative thinking and technical direction for the integration of AI technology into industrial automation systems.
