C INSPIRE Hosts “NVIDIA AI for Manufacturing” Seminar — Unveiling Advanced AI Innovations for Thailand’s Smart Factory Era
January 22, 2025 – Eastin Grand Hotel Phayathai, Bangkok
C INSPIRE Co., Ltd., an official NVIDIA Enterprise Partner, organized a technical seminar titled “NVIDIA AI for Manufacturing”, aimed at empowering Thailand’s manufacturing sector with the latest AI technologies. The event attracted CTOs, IT managers, engineers, developers, and researchers from both private and public sectors, eager to explore real-world AI applications for industrial transformation.
Keynote: AI for Manufacturing – From Vision to Reality
Speaker: Khun Pankaeo Sihawong, Country Lead, Enterprise Business, NVIDIA Thailand
The keynote session provided a comprehensive overview of the NVIDIA AI Ecosystem tailored for intelligent manufacturing. The session highlighted how NVIDIA’s hardware and software stack supports AI deployment across Edge–Core–Cloud layers:
- NVIDIA GPU Portfolio enabling high-performance training and inference for AI workloads
- NVIDIA Metropolis & DeepStream SDK for real-time video analytics in industrial environments (e.g., visual defect detection, object counting, safety surveillance)
- Triton Inference Server & TensorRT for optimized AI inference with over 50% reduction in latency
- NVIDIA AI Enterprise Suite, providing a unified stack of development tools including NIM, TAO Toolkit, RAPIDS, and NeMo Framework for LLM development
Technical Session: Preparing Data for Industrial-Grade LLMs
Speaker: Khun Rujirapong Ritwong, CEO & Founder, Softnix Technology
This session focused on “Data Preparation for Local LLM”, a critical step for organizations planning to develop or deploy Private Large Language Models (LLMs) on-premises. Key takeaways included:
- Designing data pipelines from MES, ERP, PLC systems, and IoT sensors
- Implementing data separation, cataloging, and governance to support NLP applications
- Leveraging a Data Lakehouse architecture for descriptive, predictive, and generative analytics
- Preparing datasets for pretraining and fine-tuning with tools like Hugging Face, NVIDIA NeMo, and LangChain
Panel Discussion: Practical AI Adoption in Thai Manufacturing
The final session featured a panel of AI experts from C INSPIRE and guest speakers who shared real-world insights and lessons learned. Topics included:
- Implementing AI-driven Predictive Maintenance to reduce unplanned machine downtime
- Using automated quality control systems powered by AI vision and robotics
- Deploying Private GPT models for secure handling of internal engineering documentation
- Managing GPU resource scheduling and scaling AI workloads across multi-factory environments
Conclusion
