Perfom, a leading company in the perforated sheet metal industry with a tradition dating back to 1942, is taking significant steps in digitizing its business, using artificial intelligence (AI) to optimize its manufacturing processes.

New research highlights key steps in Perfom's digital transformation, aiming to achieve greater efficiency and productivity. With a team of over 180 experts, the company leverages its rich database spanning decades to implement AI and machine learning-based solutions.

Following the successful integration of an ERP system and CAD/CAM platform, artificial intelligence now searches the database and automatically identifies optimal solutions for each new project. This has led to an impressive time savings of over 15% in tool setup processes, which were previously done manually. Additionally, thanks to AI, the company has achieved faster data exchange, better collaboration, and more efficient handling of multiple projects simultaneously.

In addition to artificial intelligence, Perfom continuously invests in the professional development of its employees, using the Kaizen method as a tool to improve operational efficiency.

While artificial intelligence brings real business benefits through time savings and increased efficiency, the importance of human expertise in this process is also emphasized. AI is a tool that complements but cannot replace human intuition and knowledge.

Perfom, with the help of artificial intelligence, not only optimizes its operations but also lays the foundation for long-term sustainability and competitive advantages in the industry.
