SEOUL, August 5 -- South Korean shipbuilder HD Hyundai Co. has installed its intelligent welding system at Huntington Ingalls Industries' (HII) shipyard in Mississippi, US, as part of a pilot project to boost productivity. The move is a follow-up to a memorandum of understanding (MOU) signed in April last year, aiming to enhance shipbuilding productivity and cooperation on advanced technologies, including automation and artificial intelligence (AI).

HD Hyundai's intelligent welding system, developed in-house, will be integrated into HII's facilities, representing a more extensive automation footprint and workforce involvement. HD Hyundai Heavy Industries Co. (HHI) and HD Hyundai Samho Co. have also been utilizing this technology at their respective facilities.
