Even though for most of the new product designs, we already have another similar part being manufactured, still the overall cycle time is very high and has no re-usable components. The current New Product Development process used by the partner is time consuming and is also not cost efficient. Currently, whenever a new product is designed, the consumer provides the company with required details such as design, dimensions etc. The current New Product Development process is time consuming as there is no base of any kind to build upon although they have the required information/data available, the cost increases along with the time taken for the development for a new product. Whenever a new product is being developed, 40% to 50% of the time can be reduced by building a base for this product by using available information from same or similar products that have been previously designed.
Despite having a repository of information and data from past product designs, the current NPD process lacks re-usability and efficiency. Each new product is designed from scratch, resulting in extended cycle times and increased costs. Bharat Forge is looking for an AI Algorithm that can access the previous data available to them and build a type of base to build upon to minimize the time and effort spent on the New Product Developmet process which automatically reduces the cost spent during the process.
The main unit contains huge mechanical presses. There is a critical need to reduce downtime and production losses associated with breakdowns in its mechanical presses. When a component fails, such as a Pitman crack, the rod crack, bull gear bearing failure, motor failure, or friction and misalignment issues, it not only results in substantial downtime but also disrupts production schedules. The component which is broken down takes a long time to be replaced which automatically leads to production loss. The mechanical press potrays certain features which indicate the break down such as change in temperature, pressure, force exerted etc. The company is in need of AI based algorithms that learn & analyzes the indicators and predicts a breakdown so the breakdown can be expected beforehand and prevented.
