988 AI chip manufacturing machines submerged underwater. .. we had 40 days. A flood hit a critical semiconductor facility. The automotive industry, AI chip companies were at risk of severe delays. We had 40 days to restore 988 machines. 1) We started by assessing the damage. 2) Set up specialised oven rooms to dry components. 3) Dehumidified the entire facility. 4) Each machine was meticulously decontaminated. 5) Parts were tested, some replaced. We coined "decentralised restoration"—multiple teams, all working simultaneously. In 40 days, the facility was back online. Production resumed. Want to know more about our restoration techniques?

Inside Packaging And Module Technology With Saras Micro Company executives discuss the semiconductor industry, advanced packaging and the challenges facing the IC industry in the AI era. Go to this article:

The future of manufacturing is AI-driven. But it's not without challenges. How to unlock machine data's potential? Rockwell Automation's collaboration with NVIDIA is a game-changer. We're tapping into the vast, untapped potential of machine data to revolutionize manufacturing. "Our partnership combines Rockwell's data aggregation capabilities with Nvidia's cutting-edge GPUs and Omniverse Cloud," said Blake Moret, Rockwell Automation CEO, in a recent interview with CNBC's 'Closing Bell Overtime.' What's at stake? Efficiency and innovation. We focus on crucial manufacturing use cases: accelerated computing, simulation, and generative AI. Imagine autonomous robots navigating factory floors precisely, virtual simulations streamlining processes, and AI-powered programming tools. Yet, it's not all smooth sailing. This year is a reset for the industry, and supply chain shortages and macroeconomic uncertainties loom large. But we're not deterred. The future is AI-driven, and we're leading the charge. Let's go, Team ROK!
