Process Informatics
Using artificial intelligence technology in process design lets us more efficiently find the desired conditions in the shortest time possible. With Aixtal’s unique approach, analysis and optimization can be achieved in a short period of time using a limited amount of past data — especially at manufacturing sites where accumulating big data is difficult.

AI Training
The key to success in AI-based projects is having specialized knowledge about the subject. It is very important for engineers with specialized knowledge in the manufacturing industry to learn about AI. Aixtal’s AI training business provides training curricula that is specifically for the manufacturing industry.
