"Artificial intelligence will support us, not replace us"
High-mix, low-volume production has long been one of the most complex operational environments in the EMS industry. Short production runs, high product variability, frequent changeovers and constant time pressure mean that factories operate in a state of near-constant adaptation.

In such conditions, manufacturing ceases to be a collection of independent processes — it becomes a system in which every change carries wider operational consequences.
