Intel collaborates with LG Innotek to implement an Artificial Intelligence-powered smart factory

LG Innotek will deploy Intel Core and Intel Xeon processors alongside Intel Arc built-in graphics processing units, unified by the OpenVINO software tool kit, to extend Artificial Intelligence across its Gumi factory. The initiative aims to create a fully automated production system that preserves performance while reducing defects.

Precision component manufacturing requires extreme consistency when producing the tiny parts that go into modern cellphones, automotive car displays and other smart devices. LG Innotek, a South Korea-based global leader in materials and component manufacturing, describes achieving perfect accuracy and zero defects at scale as a moonshot goal. At its factory in Gumi, Korea, the company is pursuing that goal by expanding the use of Artificial Intelligence across multiple stages of its production process.

To support that expansion, LG Innotek is integrating an orchestra of Intel technologies. The deployment includes Intel Core processors, Intel Xeon processors and Intel Arc built-in graphics processing units. These hardware elements are brought together with the OpenVINO software tool kit to run inspection and automation workloads. The article frames the effort as a coordinated platform intended to scale Artificial Intelligence applications beyond isolated terminals to broader factory operations.

LG Innotek has previously used a combination of rule-based inspection and deep learning-based systems at specific terminals on its production lines to improve product quality. The current collaboration with Intel seeks to move from terminal-level checks to a fully automated system that applies Artificial Intelligence across every stage of manufacturing without performance degradations. The stated objective is to maintain or improve throughput and quality while advancing toward replication of identical parts hundreds of thousands of times with minimal defects.
