Frequently Asked Questions
-
What do we mean by autonomous manufacturing, and how is Lambda Function an enabler?Autonomous manufacturing goes beyond industry 4.0 and refers to increased control intelligence in manufacturing operations. According to a research study published by Roland Berger in 2019, the degree of automation and control intelligence define autonomy levels in factories. Both are measured on a scale of 0 to 5, where 5 translates to maximum control intelligence. At Lambda Function, we aim to facilitate precision manufacturing by providing higher levels of control intelligence. The software, at present, intends to caters to level 3 autonomy. In the next phases of R&D, we intend to develop solutions that go up to level 5 autonomy.
-
Are any capital costs or investments required to integrate Lambda Function software?Lambda Function software, at present, doesn't need any capital costs or external hardware. However, future versions and use cases may require integration with other platforms or assets.
-
How do we leverage strategic partners?Lambda Function collaborates with multiple types of entities and makes them a part of its growing ecosystem. These types include: R&D institutions specifically focused on advanced manufacturing, machining, and industrial data science IT solution vendors dealing in shop floor solutions and product lifecycle management solutions IoT hardware/software vendors like sensor OEMs and connectivity solution providers respectively Cutting tool OEMs CNC machine OEMs. Digital transformation integrators and more Therefore, we collaborate with leading companies across domains to help accelerate our R&D and go-to-market roadmaps.
-
How does Lambda Function handle data security for critical CAD/CAM assets?At Lambda Function, we treat your CAD, CAM, and CNC data as mission-critical. That’s why we’ve embedded robust security into every layer of our platform. We’re SOC 2 and NIST-800-171 compliant, which means your data is governed by rigorous standards for security, availability, and confidentiality. Learn more about our security best practices here
-
