Intel & LG Innotek Build AI-Driven Smart Factory in Gumi | JK Tech
Precision with AI at the Core
LG Innotek—known for producing camera modules, automotive display components, and other high-tech materials—has long pursued flawless production. Its facility in Gumi is now outfitted with a collaborative AI inspection system powered by Intel Core and Xeon processors, Intel Arc GPUs, and the OpenVINO toolkit, all working together to automate defect detection across the manufacturing line. This enables full automation without sacrificing performance.
Why Retailers Remain Vulnerable to Ransomware
The AI-powered setup operates in layers:
Key Features:
- Intel Core CPUs with integrated graphics handle real-time analysis of defect data—providing cost-effective, built-in capability.
- Intel Arc discrete GPUs take on heavy-lift workloads, such as high-resolution image processing.
- Intel Xeon-powered servers manage accumulated data and pre-training tasks.
- Future enhancements may include Intel Gaudi AI accelerators to further improve training efficiency. This architecture dramatically lowers the cost of deploying AI inspections.
Greater Efficiency & Scalability
By selecting Intel Arc GPUs, LG Innotek achieved significant cost savings—3 to 4 times better cost efficiency than alternatives—allowing scalability across multiple lines. Starting with mobile camera modules, the AI inspection system will soon roll out to core domestic plants like Gumi Factory 4 (FC‑BGA line) and overseas sites, driving enhanced quality and competitiveness.
Seamless Development with OpenVINO
LG Innotek engineers initially flexed with the idea of switching from third-party GPUs. But OpenVINO simplified the transition—letting them convert and deploy AI models with minimal code changes while maintaining compatibility with existing environments.
Smarter Retraining with Xeon & AI Extensions
For fine-tuning AI models amid changing production parameters, LG Innotek plans to lean on Xeon processors enhanced with Advanced Matrix Extensions (AMX). This CPU-based approach reduces reliance on discrete GPUs—lowering costs while preserving retraining effectiveness.
