As a pioneer deeply committed to the "AI + Manufacturing" track, Luculent Smart upholds the development philosophy of "technological independence, scenario implementation, and ecosystem refinement." It empowers the development of intelligent manufacturing through deep industrial practice and has become a significant force driving the advancement of new quality productive forces in industry.
Hotspot: Amid the Industrial AI Boom, Manufacturing Enterprises Actively Promote Multi-Scenario Applications
In 2025, the wave of generative AI technology surged, with various large models being intensively unveiled and iteratively upgraded. Against this backdrop, AI technology is deeply integrating with the manufacturing industry. From the R&D phase, which relies on AI generative design to rapidly respond to product iteration and customization needs, to production control scenarios that utilize intelligent algorithms for process optimization and scheduling, and further to quality control phases that employ AI visual inspection to meet high-precision quality inspection requirements, AI technology has become the core driving force behind the digital and intelligent transformation of manufacturing.
Luculent's Practice: Building on the industry characteristics of high energy consumption and high risk in process industries, Luculent Smart takes AI technology as the core lever, deeply integrating 27 years of industry experience, process mechanisms, equipment characteristics, and other industrial know-how. It has created a vertical industry large model that "understands processes and manufacturing" – the Sunchang Yaoguang Industrial Large Model.
▲ AI + Industrial Large Model
Simultaneously, AI is embedded into the core links of the entire production process, focusing on high-value scenarios such as "AI + Production," "AI + Equipment," "AI + Safety," "AI + Energy," and "AI + Management." The company has independently developed "killer application" industrial APPs and intelligent agents for production safety, operation optimization, quality optimization, energy consumption optimization, and fault diagnosis.
▲ AI + Production Safety
▲ AI + Operation Optimization
Precise Energy Control, Immediate Results
▲ AI + Energy Saving and Emission Reduction
AI applications are evolving from "single-point efficiency gains" to "global optimization," accurately addressing core development pain points such as safety control, quality improvement, and green emission reduction.
Hotspot: Acceleration in Breakthroughs for Domestic Industrial Software; Healthy Development Requires Building a Sound Ecosystem
Driven by both policy and market forces, China's industrial software industry is accelerating its breakthroughs, with significant growth in market scale. Enterprises have achieved technological advancements in multiple domains, and the pace of ecosystem co-construction and overseas expansion is quickening.
Luculent's Practice: Luculent Smart's core industrial software products achieve 100% independent controllability, featuring deep compatibility with over 40 mainstream domestic hardware and software enterprises, including servers, operating systems, databases, and middleware, and have completed full-stack adaptation across seven major fields. Through the continuous iterative upgrading of industrial software and in collaboration with multiple partners, Luculent is building a more secure, efficient, and resilient domestic innovation ecosystem, driving the digital-intelligent leap forward in intelligent manufacturing!
Currently, Luculent's "going global" footprint has extended to over 20 countries and regions worldwide, with its international strategic layout steadily advancing and yielding notable results.
Hotspot: Digital Twins and AI Usher in a New Model for Intelligent Operations and Maintenance
Currently, the manufacturing industry faces the pain points of "four highs and two lows" in equipment operations and maintenance. Intelligent O&M that integrates digital twins and AI has become the key to breakthroughs. In 2025, multiple national policies listed it as a key scenario and core indicator, highlighting its strategic value. Domestic and international practices have verified its ability to break down data silos and optimize decision-making closed loops, transforming O&M from a cost center into a value creation point. In the future, intelligent O&M will evolve towards autonomous collaboration, shifting equipment maintenance from "repairing equipment" to "nurturing systems," and building a more resilient smart factory ecosystem.
Luculent's Practice: As the core carrier of intelligent manufacturing, smart factories are crucial for developing new quality productive forces and reinforcing a modern industrial system. Using a digital twin platform as its foundation and deeply integrating digital technologies such as IoT, big data, and AI, Luculent Smart creates smart factory solutions. These achieve digital mapping, simulation, monitoring, diagnosis, prediction, and optimization of all manufacturing elements and processes.
▲ AI + Digital Twin Smart Factory
AI x Digital Twin enables equipment to think, makes production predictable, enhances management efficiency, makes operations and maintenance more intelligent, and increases factory benefits!
Originating from manufacturing, understanding manufacturing better, and serving manufacturing. With full-stack technological innovation as a solid foundation and an open ecosystem as a vital link, Luculent Smart constructs a complete closed loop for the manufacturing industry—from top-level strategic planning to frontline scenario implementation—accelerating the deep and practical integration and development of "AI + Manufacturing" and empowering the high-quality digital-intelligent transformation and upgrade of enterprises.
