It’s coming. In fact, it’s already here. Artificial Intelligence is becoming a force in plastics processing. The ability of machines to automate tasks with no human intervention comes during a period in manufacturing where labor is hard to find, train and keep, when machine uptime and optimization is more crucial than ever, and where product quality and consistency is an absolute must. 

Listen here to what experts have to say about how artificial intelligence will impact  plastics processing. And keep in mind that this is just the beginning. Whereas the current technology sees AI being utilized on discrete pieces of equipment, it’s probably not far-fetched to envision an interconnected plant in the not to distance future that sequences and controls multiple machines.
