SAN JOSE, Calif. — Artificial intelligence and robotics both devour power, but simulation, next-generation processors, and good product design can mitigate the draw. At NVIDIA Corp.’s GTC event last week, Delta Electronics Inc. demonstrated how its digital twin platform, developed on NVIDIA Omniverse, can help enhance smart manufacturing capabilities.<\/p>\n

“We’ve partnered with NVIDIA on energy-efficient designs to support AI,” Franziskus Gehle<\/a>, general manager of the Power Solutions business unit at Delta, told The Robot Report<\/em><\/a>. “We’ve co-developed 5.5 kW designs for 98% efficiency.”<\/p>\n

The Taipei, Taiwan-based company<\/a> explained how its technologies can benefit industrial automation and warehouse operations. Delta also showed its ORV3 AI server infrastructure product and DC converters and other technologies designed to support graphics processing unit (GPU) operations.<\/p>\n

Delta designs simulation to manage automation<\/h2>\n

Founded in 1971, Delta Electronics said it is a global leader in switching power supplies and thermal management products. The company’s portfolio includes systems for industrial automation, building automation, telecommunications power, data center infrastructure, electric vehicle charging, renewable energy, and energy storage and display.<\/p>\n

Delta added that its energy-efficient products can support sustainable development. The company has sales offices, research and development centers, and factories at nearly 200 locations around the world. It provides articulated robot arms<\/a>, SCARA robots<\/a>, and robot controllers<\/a> with integrated servo drives.<\/p>\n

“Since 1995, Delta has supplied automation components, and it now offers a full product line,” said Claire Ou<\/a>, senior principal for strategic marketing in the Power and System business group at Delta. “We’ve used NVIDIA simulation for our customers and ourselves, for machine tools and semiconductors.”<\/p>\n

“Because Delta has a lot of factories around the world, it’s best to do test runs to fine-tune our hardware and software before implementation,” she told The Robot Report<\/em><\/a>. “Our solutions can monitor and manage warehouses and factories for maximum productivity.”<\/p>\n

In addition, Delta has developed its own standalone simulation<\/a> software in addition to NVIDIA Omniverse, and it can integrate data from both. In the past, automation designers, manufacturers, and users worked with different tools, but customers are now optimistic about easier collaboration, said Ou.<\/p>\n

“In 2012, Industry 4.0 was about digitalizing manufacturing,” she noted. “Since then, our management and monitoring systems have been integrated into global factories. We’re also working with data for construction and smart buildings.”<\/p>\n
