AI Agents
Specialized autonomous agents working in coordination
Orchestrator Agent
Coordinating multiple specialized agents with potentially conflicting recommendations requires intelligent synthesis and conflict resolution to produce coherent, actionable optimization plans.
Core Logic
Acts as the central coordinator managing agent lifecycle, communication, and consensus building. Synthesizes inputs from all agents using weighted voting, resolves conflicts through negotiation protocols, and generates final recommendations with aggregated confidence scores and explainable decision trails.
Production Scheduler Agent
Complex print production involves multiple machines, varying job requirements, and dynamic priorities. Manual scheduling cannot optimize across all constraints simultaneously.
Core Logic
Analyzes production capacity, job specifications, and deadlines to generate optimal machine assignments and sequencing. Uses constraint satisfaction algorithms to minimize changeovers, maximize throughput, and ensure on-time delivery while respecting equipment capabilities.
Cost Optimizer Agent
Identifying cost reduction opportunities across materials, labor, and operations while maintaining quality standards requires analysis of complex interdependencies.
Core Logic
Evaluates production plans against cost models including material waste, energy consumption, labor utilization, and overhead allocation. Recommends substrate substitutions, batch consolidation, and scheduling adjustments that reduce costs without compromising quality.
Quality Predictor Agent
Quality issues in print production often manifest late, causing waste and delays. Proactive quality management requires predictive capabilities based on production parameters.
Core Logic
Applies machine learning models to predict quality outcomes based on job specifications, machine conditions, environmental factors, and historical data. Flags high-risk jobs for pre-flight review and recommends parameter adjustments to maintain quality targets.
Delivery Coordinator Agent
Meeting diverse customer delivery requirements while optimizing logistics costs requires balancing production scheduling with carrier capabilities and shipping constraints.
Core Logic
Integrates production timelines with carrier schedules and delivery windows. Optimizes carrier selection, consolidates shipments where possible, and adjusts production priorities to meet critical delivery commitments while minimizing shipping costs.
Sustainability Analyst Agent
Environmental impact measurement and reduction across print operations requires tracking carbon footprint, waste generation, and resource consumption across complex production workflows.
Core Logic
Calculates environmental metrics for production alternatives including carbon emissions, water usage, and waste generation. Recommends eco-friendly substrate options, efficient production routings, and waste reduction strategies aligned with sustainability goals.
Market Intelligence Agent
Production decisions made without market context miss opportunities for competitive positioning and risk mitigation from price fluctuations or supply constraints.
Core Logic
Monitors commodity prices, supplier capacity, competitor activity, and demand trends. Provides market insights that inform material procurement timing, pricing strategies, and capacity planning decisions.
Supply Chain Risk Agent
Supply chain disruptions from supplier issues, logistics delays, or material shortages can derail production schedules and impact customer commitments.
Core Logic
Continuously monitors supplier health, logistics status, and inventory levels to identify potential disruptions. Calculates risk scores for production plans and recommends mitigation strategies including safety stock, alternative suppliers, and schedule buffers.
