▲ Chennai plant interior technologies . We have invested in connected system logic , which has not only enhanced our efficiency , but also improved our quality and productivity .
“ By installing various automated technologies , we ’ ve been able to update our old plants like Bhandup and Nasik , as well as create stateof-the-art new facilities , such as our plant in Chennai .
“ There is a lot more work to be done in terms of predictive quality , especially the implementation of artificial intelligence ( AI ) and machine learning algorithms . Our main consideration is the way we can predict the quality of a product by tweaking each process parameter . This is extremely challenging for a process industry as there are a vast number of parameters to monitor .
“ Wet grip , for example , is a critical requirement in European countries and requires 49 parameters that need to be tracked to achieve the targeted values during the tire manufacturing process and we rely on automation to monitor the specification values .
“ Our manufacturing system is built to adapt to the quality of the raw material being used , with
