We make Manufacturing Simplified.
Product & Service
Our solutions are enabled by our proprietary AI platform and product suite, engineered specifically for semiconductor, green energy and advanced manufacturing environments:
iWave Autopilot – Autonomous Operation
Delivers manufacturing autonomy through AI-driven orchestration that monitors, decides, and executes real-time process adjustments. It supports end-to-end packaging line control, from product infeed to sealing and labelling, with applications in operational flow, autonomous equipment and metrology, as well as changeover and recipe management.
iWave Zero Defects – AI Defect Detection Platform
Delivers highly accurate defect detection with automatic defect classification powered by an intelligent generalisation model. Designed to achieve <1% overkill, it enables reliable, scalable inspection without reliance on extensive defect-labelled data, accelerating deployment and improving yield quality.
iWave Insight – Real-time Prediction and Optimisation
Provides continuous process intelligence through early anomaly detection, real-time alerts, and in-line optimisation. With equipment fingerprinting, root cause mapping, and correlation-based impact forecasting, it enables predictive performance monitoring and faster, data-driven decision-making across complex manufacturing systems.
