PRESS RELEASE

For the first time at SPS Italia, the revolutionary power

of Artificial Intelligence in industrial processes

Relatech and EFA Automazione (part of the Group), pioneers for decades in introducing innovations that have changed the face of industrial automation, offer visitors to SPS the concrete demonstration of how artificial intelligence is perfectly functional to a smart factory 5.0 that sees man at the center of every process.

SPS Italy | 28-30 May, Parma

Hall 5, Stand G005

Milan, 02 May 2024

Relatech S.p.A., Digital Enabler Solution Know-How (DESK) Company listed on the Euronext Growth Milan market (Ticker: RLT) and EFA Automazione (part of the Group) faithful to the innovative vocation that has always distinguished them, will be at SPS Italia again this year with revolutionary novelties to say the least. Their presence will be particularly meaningful for all those who will pass by booth G005 - Hall 5 where they will be able to experience firsthand the power of artificial intelligence applied to industrial processes.

It is a fact that AI has now become part of the lexicon of the OT world. However, it remains to be seen and to demonstrate how and to what extent this disruptive technology is actually applied in the industrial field today. This is the principle that guided Relatech and its subsidiary EFA Automazione in the choice to bring to SPS a machine that concretely shows how AI and its innovative ability to interact with humans are already a reality that, in addition to revolutionizing the industrial paradigms known to us, will bring great advantages, many of which, yet to be discovered.

The principle that guides the demonstration is the satisfaction of a punctual request. The visitor will be served by a robotic pick and place that will hand a glass full of those "Temptresses of Vignola" cherries that have been making a visit to the EFA-Relatech stand tasty for years.

But this is where it all begins. The interaction with humans, which is vocal and can take place in any language known to us, supports and enhances the current standards of human-machine interfacing thanks to the AI factor, which for the first time is on-board: the user has access to knowledge that is not the result of predetermined learning. It is an unprecedented type of interfacing that allows humans to interact with an entity that has access, in addition to all field data, to universal knowledge. Thanks to artificial intelligence by an unprecedented computational speed and logical capacity, man can obtain accurate and contextualized

information, which is the result of real-time data processing and analysis, the use of which is, however, disruptive compared to the traditional concept of interfacing offered by a current HMI.

The demo shows how AI can be integrated into traditional HMIs as an "extension" of them, which are thus equipped to meet the needs of an increasingly digital and interconnected world, thanks to conversational and data analysis capabilities that make efficient, and at the same time simplify, the use of machines by operators.

Using natural language in the installation that will be shown in SPS, it will therefore be possible to request to be served by a robotic arm and, at the same time and with the same simple mode of interaction, query the machine to receive information on the main KPIs and execution performance.

Without a shadow of a doubt, the capacity of this machine, which, by way of example, shows the power of AI applied to industrial processes, is the result of a competence and know-how that cannot be improvised. Behind this technology there is in fact the many years of expertise and the sum of the end-to-end offer that Relatech and EFA Automazione are now able to offer to all companies that have undertaken or want to embark on a path of complete and secure digitization, including aspects that concern IT security as an integral part. These are the same companies that believe in innovation and interaction between man and technology, as an essential condition for remaining competitive in a market context that has never been as complex as the current one.

The road to innovation leads to booth G005 in Hall 5 where Relatech and EFA Automazione are waiting for you to browse and share with all of you, this new and exciting chapter in the evolution of the industrial paradigm of the future.
