The automotive industry is now at a turning point.

Vehicle digitization, globalization of markets and supply chains, chronic labor shortages, sustainability, and the rise of Chinese OEMs.
The environment surrounding the industry is changing dramatically, and manufacturers must respond to these challenges.

In order for manufacturers to remain competitive in the market and survive in the future, they need to fundamentally change their production processes and production lines.
Line automation engineering is attracting attention, and we are now in the age of the assembly line, where automobiles in production are truly assembled by themselves in motion.

This is an initiative that incorporates the latest digital technologies such as AI and digital twin to create smarter, more flexible, and productive manufacturing lines.

What exactly should be done to put this line automation engineering into practice, and how should it proceed?
The first step is to realize a manufacturing line that is “resilient to change. In addition, automation should be introduced into the manufacturing process, and virtual verification should be conducted using data,
In addition, it is necessary to promote collaboration across departmental boundaries by eliminating silos in the production line.
