Artificial Intelligence

Altair Engineering is leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) and digital twin technology to speed product design simulations.

How Artificial Intelligence (AI) can succeed 6% reduction in energy consumption, a 9% decrease in rejects, and a 10% enhancement in systems efficiency. This approach significantly accelerates the timeline from project planning to AI deployment, condensing it from months to a matter of weeks.

Artificial intelligence can revolutionize Injection Molding by extracting insights and improving process indicators. The Lüdenscheid Plastics Institute in Germany is conducting some studies to teach companies to understand how to use AI effectively.

The plastics industry is poised for transformative changes in 2024, marked by dynamic trends that underscore a commitment to sustainability, innovation, and digital transformation.

AI will help to drive the pace of development in robotics and automation predicts Anders Billesø Beck, VP of innovation and strategy for Universal Robots.

Hitachi High-Tech developed an AI tool that enabled them to reduce their research on biodegradable additives from 120 days to two days. Researchers have used AI in the development of new materials and additives for the production of plastics. Some companies are looking for alternatives to suit their customers’ needs.

AI has become an important tool for the development of new materials, enabling R&D scientists to develop new materials with improved properties and functionalities. Data analysis and prediction A significant form of AI’s contribution is data analysis. By sorting through…

The Society of Plastics Engineers (SPE) invites you to join their team of instructors as they develop educational programs and workshops for their audience of plastics professionals seeking to enhance their work skills and abilities. Instructors will lead workshops that break the mold, offering unique perspectives and insights that resonate with their audience.

A coalition of European companies has combined artificial intelligence (AI) and computer vision with an efficient decontamination process to boost the recyclability of post-consumer polypropylene food packaging.

National Renewable Energy Laboratory scientists have used artificial intelligence (AI) to develop a tool to help users find the most sustainable polymers for specific applications. The tool, called PolyID, predicts material properties based on molecular structure.

The use of artificial intelligence in the packaging industry is projected to grow 11.2 percent per year to $6.02 billion, nearly triple in value, by 2033.

Plastic waste has become one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time, and addressing it requires groundbreaking advancements. SPE recently announced their upcoming conference, “Reducing Plastic Waste Through Artificial Intelligence and Digitalization” (October 16-17 in Baltimore, MD.), that will include industry leaders, experts, and innovators who will address how artificial intelligence (AI) and digitalization are revolutionizing the plastic industry, offering robust solutions that can effectively mitigate plastic waste and optimize its usage through increased recycling.
