A recent report by Minsait, a subsidiary of the tech giant Indra, reveals that 67% of companies in the industrial sector have adopted artificial intelligence (AI) in their manufacturing processes. The primary goal of this adoption is to optimize production and reduce costs.
AI integration has enabled six out of ten companies to improve product quality and employee safety through digital verifications and image-based defect recognition systems. Additionally, some businesses have reduced storage costs by up to 10% thanks to more efficient supply chain management facilitated by these technologies.
The main motivation for implementing AI in the industrial sector is optimization and cost savings, according to 68% of surveyed companies. Furthermore, 25% highlight that artificial intelligence positively impacts strategic decision-making by allowing real-time data collection to identify trends and patterns.
Looking ahead, companies plan to invest in AI-driven analytical solutions and the development of "copilots" to create specific use cases. Technologies like digital twins, which enable simulations and operations monitoring, are also being considered for future implementation.
This fifth edition of the Minsait report analyzed data from over 900 organizations across Spain and other countries, spanning 15 sectors. It reflects a global trend toward adopting artificial intelligence in the industry to enhance efficiency and competitiveness in the market.
