The new version of the KFactory platform was launched

KFactory^®’s new version uses AI agent systems and advanced computer vision to enhance shopfloor operations – production, maintenance, quality, and sustainability.

KFactory® announces the official launch of the new version of the KFactory platform—the next-generation solution dedicated to comprehensive innovation in the manufacturing industry. The update delivers major improvements through the native integration of advanced AI-agent systems – advanced AI agent systems seamlessly integrated within Microsoft Teams – empowered to autonomously manage workflows, schedule resources, and deliver complex insights.

KFactory 2 has been reengineered as a next-generation platform designed to drive comprehensive manufacturing innovation, now fully extending its capabilities to include machine and tool maintenance, quality assurance, and sustainability processes. By automating these routine processes, Virtual Engineers enable human teams to dedicate their expertise to high-value, creative, and customer-facing activities.

Key innovations in KFactory 2:

• AI agents continuously oversee operations, monitor performance trends, manage routine administrative tasks, flag anomalies, and deliver actionable insights 24/7. By automating these routine processes, KFactory enables human teams to dedicate their expertise to high-value, creative, and customer-facing activities.
• AI continuous process improvement: The AI agent systems monitor results, propose continuous improvements, and then monitor their implementation and effectiveness.
• “What if” analysis: Leveraging real historical data to allow managers to predict how potential changes will influence performance.
• Advanced computer vision: Real-time product counting, object recognition, dynamic surface area measurement, and intelligent detection of dynamic bin loadings, significantly enhancing operational accuracy.
• Sensor-based condition monitoring: Proactive alerts triggered by energy, pressure, or vibration thresholds, preventing downtime before it occurs.
• Intelligent internal logistics: Computer vision-driven replenishment notifications optimize inventory management and fill labor gaps effectively.
• Digital quality control: Automated validation of technician-reported quality checks with conformity report creation.
• Maintenance optimization: Digital checklists for routine maintenance ensure early detection of issues and rapid response.
• Access to entire company documentation: Instant access to manuals, procedures, and instructions via multiple channels by simply querying in natural language.
