Compal Integrates HOP and LLM to Enhance Production Line Management Efficiency
Background
As a Fortune 500 global ODM leader, Compal is not only focusing on AI technologies but also accelerating its smart factory transformation. To enhance production line management and decision-making, Compal partnered with PowerArena HOP (Human Operation Platform), integrating AI vision and LLM technologies to build a complete human-driven production data foundation and a production management large language model.
Challenges
- Traditional manual inspections and sampling cannot fully capture operator behavior, making root cause analysis difficult.
- Lack of real-time, structured data impacts efficiency and quality decisions.
- SQL-based queries are complex, making cross-department collaboration and quick insights challenging.
Solutions
1. AI Vision + Visual Production Records
PowerArena deploys cameras across production lines to record operator activities 24/7, creating comprehensive production records. Unstructured video data is processed through AI vision to generate structured metrics like cycle times, anomalies, and workstation details.
2. LLM (AI Chatbot) for Smart Queries
Compal built an internal LLM powered by data from PowerArena HOP. Managers can query production status using natural language and receive instant, accurate insights.
3. Real-Time Data Visualization
All anomalies, timestamps, and workstation data are traceable, providing real-time insights for process optimization and bottleneck analysis.
