Published purpose

This innovative project will be the first to introduce a fully autonomous, AI-driven Clean-in-Place (CIP) system, designed to improve performance, capacity, reduce labour dependency, and minimize service and maintenance requirements. At the core is a bespoke AI Copilot, equipped with smart monitoring capabilities, cameras, and real-time data analysis to proactively detect and prevent system issues before they escalate. The AI will learn from operational data to optimize system performance and provide detailed reporting, troubleshooting guidance, and remote support for staff and technical teams. This project will help accelerate Bench's growth while contributing to Canada’s clean tech sector through the development of AI Enabled technology.
