FEATURE: OCRIM EVENT BLENDS TRADITION, AI
Automation today is more than a PLC that performs
simple logical functions, he said.
" We can have advanced tools that send data to then
be processed by AI systems so as to be able to intervene
promptly in management of the plant, " Lambri said.
AI includes four subsets: learning, vision, robotics and
the Internet of Things (IoT). Within learning, there is machine
learning, which deals with creating
systems that learn and improve performance
based on acquired data.
Deep Learning, a subset of machine
learning,
uses mathematical models
but is inspired by and emulates
the functioning of the human brain,
Lambri said.
" This technology allows machines
to learn and improve autonomously by
processing large volumes of data, " he
said. " The goal of Machine Learning
and Deep Learning is to make a machine
that is able to learn from its
own experience to then complete new
tasks it has never faced in a very accurate
manner. "
Artificial vision represents a fundamental
point of AI, Lambri said,
because thanks to the use of image
recognition
algorithms
there is a
faster response in detecting defects,
and this leads to greater product selection,
contributing to a high-quality
result. An example is the optical sorter,
which is trained to reject product
through image acquisition and use of
deep learning.
Robots are one of the most concrete
aspects of AI, because robots are used
to automate physical tasks.

" The use of robots allows us to have very accurate repeatability
in operations, something that humans would
not be able to maintain, " Lambri said. " AI algorithms
are essential for robots to perform complex tasks. For
example, a robot might use a path-finding algorithm to
navigate a warehouse or to optimize a trajectory. "
IoT, a network of connected objects and devices
equipped with sensors that allow them to transmit and
receive data, is increasingly used in the industrial sector.
For example, machine data from roller mills could
be sent to the cloud and then visible via customized
apps or an analytical format.
" This would allow authorized personnel to interact
with the machine even when the system is unattended, "
Lambri said.
Another field in which artificial intelligence is heavOctober

ily used is in customer service or predictive maintenance.
A virtual assistant can help operators manage
problems, guide them in maintenance or find the part
to order, he said.
Paolo Molinari, electrical and automation department
manager, delved into specific applications of AI
in milling, while emphasizing AI can improve plant
performance, but not alone.
Data is the fuel that powers AI, so data quality is key,
he said. Inaccurate or incomplete data can lead to incorrect
predictions. Data also may contain biases, making
it important to recognize and mitigate those biases.
Managing large volumes of data requires adequate infrastructure
for storage and processing.
Ocrim offers its customers Mill@management to
collect and store data, which eventually can be shared
to the Ocrim Cloud that is being designed, Molinari
said. Data types include stocks, recipes, cycles, maintenance,
yield reports and power consumption.
The company is in the process of formalizing some
AI applications for the milling process, including the
Advanced Production Planner to optimize the planning
and scheduling of production activities. Using
advanced algorithms, data analytics and software soluFollowing
the presentations, attendees toured Ocrim's
facilities and were able to examine equipment up close.
