AI-controlled manufacturing
As blade lengths exceed 100 metres to meet global energy demands, manufacturing them at volume - without costly defects - remains a technical challenge. Automated rate-enabling processes like AI-controlled liquid resin infusion cuts blade defects by 80%. Less waste, faster cycles, greater confidence at scale.
