MakinaRocks Applies Robot-Specialized AI Solution to Hyundai Motor Production Sites

MakinaRocks, in collaboration with Hyundai Motor Company, has developed a predictive maintenance solution (RPMS) specialized for industrial robots, achieving over 90% accuracy in failure prediction and applying it to production sites.

On April 23, MakinaRocks announced that, starting with the Asan plant, it is sequentially expanding its industrial robot-specific predictive maintenance solution to key domestic and overseas production bases. The two companies have built a predictive maintenance system (PHM) that applies deep learning algorithms to robot operation data, enabling failures to be predicted five days in advance with more than 90% accuracy, significantly reducing downtime.

The RPMS jointly developed by MakinaRocks and Hyundai Motor Company performs drive unit condition diagnostics, setup anomaly detection, and state change notifications. The range of diagnostic items continues to expand with the goal of minimizing unexpected downtime on production lines and further improving maintenance efficiency. The solution, starting from the Asan plant, is rapidly being rolled out to major production bases such as Ulsan, India, and Jeonju, both domestically and internationally.

A Hyundai Motor Company official stated, "Hyundai Motor Company is accelerating the transition to SDF, securing overwhelming competitiveness in the finished vehicle market. By standardizing the AI-powered predictive maintenance technology, which has been validated over a long period with MakinaRocks, across global production bases, we will secure flexibility in manufacturing processes and flawless quality, thereby realizing ultra-productivity."

Sung Ho Yoon, CEO of MakinaRocks, said, "Hyundai Motor Company was an important strategic investor who drove our growth in our early days, and now they are a key customer with whom we are realizing intelligence in manufacturing sites. We will continue to strengthen our partnership as a trusted collaborator capable of overcoming the complexity of manufacturing sites and realizing the SDF envisioned by Hyundai Motor Company together."
