Shapers of the Future: Trumpf on the Way to the Machine Human
For Trumpf, it's no longer enough to just build the best lasers. What counts in the fight against Chinese competitors are complete systems with robotics. Trumpf is conquering the new field with AI.
Trumpf, a family-owned company based in Ditzingen, Germany, is revolutionizing robotics by developing intelligent industrial robots that can make their own decisions. The company, which specializes in laser technology, is focusing on making robots smarter to enhance its metalworking machines and gain a competitive edge, particularly against Chinese rivals.
Trumpf's approach involves using artificial intelligence (AI) and software to improve its robots, with around 600 developers working on its own software and a team of 12 AI experts, plus 90 more worldwide. The company aims to integrate AI into its products, with applications such as predictive maintenance and autonomous analysis of machine data already underway.
