Apera AI Honored with Innovation Award and Named a Top Supplier by American Axle & Manufacturing (AAM)

Apera AI, the leader in 4D Vision for industrial robotic automation, has been honored with the Innovation Award by AAM at its annual Supplier Day event. AAM, a global Tier 1 automotive supplier of driveline and metal forming technologies, annually recognizes its top-performing partners through its Supplier Excellence Awards.

“We are grateful and honored to receive this recognition from the team at AAM,” said Sina Afrooze, CEO and Co-Founder of Apera AI. “Industrial robots around the world either don’t have eyes or have poor vision. By working closely with leading industrial manufacturers, like AAM, we’ve successfully unleashed the true power of artificial intelligence to give robots 20/20 vision. Together, we automate the impossible—solving the toughest automation challenges with 99.99% reliability in object recognition and task execution, while enabling robots to operate up to 10X faster in any lighting condition.”

AAM has recognized exceptional suppliers each year since its founding in 1994. Winners are selected based on performance criteria including delivery performance, product quality, launch execution, sustainability commitment, and technology leadership. 

By adopting Apera AI’s 4D Vision system, the manufacturing team at AAM has reduced downtime and overhead while increasing throughput in robotic work cells and conveyor-based systems—automating key material handling tasks at select facilities such as loading welding, machining, and heat-treating cells.

Apera AI makes factories more productive by empowering robots with human-like vision and advanced artificial intelligence, dramatically increasing speed and accuracy. Challenging applications such as bin picking, sorting, packaging, and assembly are now open to fast, precise, and reliable automation.
