Chennai:
June 27, 2023: Jidoka
Technologies, a leader in automated cognitive inspection for the manufacturing
industry, is in its next phase of growth. As a part of its growth strategy,
Jidoka Technologies announced its presence in Pune to cater to the growing
manufacturing market in Western India. Maharashtra and Gujarat, key states of
the western region, called the manufacturing hub of India continue to receive
big-ticket investment projects. The region is leading in terms of investment
opportunities, manufacturing capacity, and investment-friendly locations
besides good connectivity infrastructure and logistics, all favorable for
setting up industries. Besides other manufacturing industries, auto has a
strong base with the presence of global OEMs, and Tier I and Tier II suppliers.
In Maharashtra, Pune which leads in the auto manufacturing space has more than
4,000 manufacturing and ancillary units.
Supporting the manufacturing sector, Jidoka’s
Solutions deliver complete automation of visual inspection, a process that is
usually highly subjective. Leveraging cutting-edge technologies, the QC
solutions automate the process of visual quality while increasing consistency
and accuracy at high speed. The technologies include deep learning algorithms,
advanced image augmentation techniques, and edge computing for high-speed
decision-making on complex problems.
Sekar
Udayamurthy, CEO and Co-founder, of Jidoka Technologies, said, “Western India is an important strategic
growth region for Jidoka. We look forward
to supporting the manufacturing sector in the region with our near-zero-defect
manufacturing solution. Our AI-enabled
visual inspection solution empowers manufacturers to harness high business
value by improving quality, reducing costs, and increasing throughput. Our Pune Center will be supporting customers
in the manufacturing industry across Maharashtra and Gujarat.”
Jidoka Technologies is also increasing its global
presence and establishing itself in the US market by launching its operations
there. The organization has opened an Experience Center in Dallas. It already has a presence in Lithuania,
Europe.
Jidoka Technologies has expanded its operations in
Chennai with additional office space. The new office will accommodate Jidoka’s
rapid growth. Commenting on the
development, Sekar said, “The whole
team at Jidoka Technologies is excited about our larger office in Chennai. Being a significant milestone, this office
space is better suited to accommodate our fast-growing team. Furthermore, the additional space will enable
more innovation and expansion into newer markets.”
There are many benefits to manufacturers with Jidoka
Solution as organizations can now digitize inspection and leverage the analysis
to improve the process. On the quality front, Jidoka’s software improves the
defect detection rate by 10% to 15% while also bringing down the false
positives by as much as 30% to 40%. The ability to perform inspection in
real-time by eliminating inspection as a bottleneck in the supply chain is also
an added advantage.
