Application Scenarios of Artificial Intelligence in Electric Drives Production

Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI) is the overall term for technologies used to build intelligent systems, no matter whether utilized in an industrial or private environment. However, hardly any AI-based approaches have been proposed for the increasingly important electric drives production yet. By identifying and presenting exemplary application scenarios for knowledge-based systems (KBS) and machine learning (ML), the paper serves as a starting point for further research in the respective fields. Among others, the systematic overview reveals that KBS are especially suited for supporting the planning of electric drives production systems, whereas ML-based approaches have great potential for optimizing single production processes.
