Innodisk, a global AI solutions provider, has officially inaugurated Phase II of its research and production center in Yilan, Taiwan. In response to the massive market demand driven by the edge AI wave, Innodisk has transformed the production facility into the Group's AI core base. With the increased production capacity, Innodisk is ready to work with global customers to implement edge AI solutions.
The year 2024 marks a time of innovation for Innodisk with the simultaneous introduction of new products and technologies. The latest production facility will start production of various edge AI products, focusing on three core technologies: "AI Acceleration", "Vision-Driven" and "Custom Integration".
In the field of AI acceleration, Innodisk's subsidiary Aetina recently launched the Nvidia MGX server, the group's first edge AI server. Innodisk also introduced industrial-grade CXL 2.0 storage and E1.S/E3.S edge server SSDs for AI and high-speed edge computing. "Vision-Driven" showcases Innodisk's innovative development in machine vision for edge AI, including the groundbreaking MIPI over Type-C extension patent technology for embedded cameras. "Custom Integration" embodies the Group's core belief in small-volume, diverse and highly customised solutions. With the accelerated development of global edge AI and the increased production capacity of the manufacturing facility, Innodisk expects to accelerate the realisation of innovative technologies and enable the effective use of products and AI solutions in practical scenarios.
In addition to promoting intelligent transformation for customers, Innodisk is also implementing these practices by transforming its production centre into a model for intelligent manufacturing and management. In collaboration with Aetina, Nvidia and through the Metropolis for Factories framework, Innodisk developed an AOI AI secondary inspection solution for smart manufacturing to improve production line efficiency. In addition, Innodisk's subsidiary Millitronic, in collaboration with Schneider Electric and Aspeed Technology, developed a remote management solution with panoramic visualisation for the plant's data centre. This solution transforms traditional on-site inspections into real-time remote management that displays data and enables remote monitoring. In addition, the "iCAP Air" solution announced this year will connect multiple sensors to measure temperature, CO2 and other air indicators to provide real-time alerts of abnormal levels and enable rapid facility management. This comprehensive application will ensure employee health and product quality.
With the inauguration of the Phase II manufacturing facility, Innodisk is focusing on recruiting AI talent. The company, which has locations in the US, Europe, Japan, China and other countries, is inviting global technical professionals to join its team. This expansion supports Innodisk's goal of fostering innovation and advancing AI solutions worldwide.
