Toward AI-enabled surface integrity control in machining of critical aerospace and medical components

Important results from the project

During the project, we discovered that we had strong common ground with our American partners in manufacturing research, education and AI. The overlap was greater than expected, indicating a real potential for deeper collaboration that extends beyond the current Vinnova call for proposals. This will characterize phase 2, which focuses on AI and manufacturing for the aerospace industry, and has created a lasting framework for cooperation between Sweden and the US.

Expected long term effects

During the project we discovered strong common ground with our US partners in manufacturing research, education, and AI. The overlap was broader than expected, showing real potential for deeper collaboration beyond the current Vinnova call. This will shape Stage 2, focused on AI and manufacturing for aerospace, and has built a lasting Sweden–US framework.

Approach and implementation

The project enabled Sweden–US collaboration through a trip to the US, including visits to universities and attendance at the NVIDIA GTC conference in San Jose, CA. by this, it broaden our perspective on AI usage across sectors, with a particular focus on manufacturing and industrial production.
