First AI-powered digital expert for the printing industry
Back in 2018, Koenig & Bauer Coding presented the first prototype of an application with artificial intelligence at FachPack. For the trade fair application, Kyana was combined with the alphaJET inkjet printer. Easy-to-use dashboards enable users to identify potential inefficiencies in their production processes. Enhanced remote maintenance using augmented reality enables more efficient troubleshooting and minimises downtime. Communication with Kyana is intuitive via chat or voice.
With Kyana, Koenig & Bauer is setting new standards in human-machine dialogue, visualisation of complex machine structures and autonomous maintenance. The prototype was awarded the prestigious Steinbeis Transfer Prize in 2019.
