AI in Engineering: From a Tool to a Virtual Team Member<\/h2>\n

\u201eHumans will then become almost like a kind of team leader\u201d<\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1770911945878{margin-bottom: 40px !important;}” text_direction=”default”]In an interview with the german trade magazine Automation NEXT, Dr. Axel Zein, CEO of WSCAD, discusses the current state and future potential of artificial intelligence in engineering. His assessment is unambiguous: despite the widespread attention AI receives, its role in classical engineering disciplines is still marginal. \u201cIn general, we are still at the very beginning of AI in engineering \u2013 really at the very beginning,\u201d says Zein. While AI has already reached a comparatively high level of maturity in software development, it is \u201calmost non-existent\u201d in areas such as electrical engineering, mechanics or PCB design.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”152468″ image_size=”full” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”None” animation_movement_type=”transform_y” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”center” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” margin_bottom=”0″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1770911969681{margin-bottom: 40px !important;}” text_direction=”default” el_class=”small”]At the Automation NEXT Conference 2025, Dr. Axel Zein, CEO of WSCAD GmbH, demonstrated from a manufacturer’s perspective how engineering processes can not only be optimized but fundamentally changed by AI.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”column_reverse” column_direction_phone=”column_reverse” text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all” css=”.vc_custom_1769612513881{margin-bottom: 40px !important;}”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1770911994101{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}” text_direction=”default”]According to Zein, one of the main reasons lies in how many companies approach the topic. Too often, the focus is placed on technology instead of real benefits. \u201cThe most important question at the beginning of any AI project is not: \u2018Which technology are we using?\u2019 but: \u2018What problem do we want to solve?\u2019\u201d Identifying meaningful use cases is essential. This requires the structured combination of data, developer expertise and domain knowledge, as well as people who are willing to think differently. \u201cThis working out of possible use cases is fundamental \u2013 before you even think about tools or technology,\u201d Zein emphasizes, adding that this phase is often significantly underestimated.<\/p>\n

Mindset is another decisive factor. Openness alone is not enough; organizations must also be prepared to change the way they work. Zein draws a parallel to automation in manufacturing: \u201cThe employee no longer welded themselves but learned to set up and monitor the robot.\u201d Engineering is undergoing a similar transformation. Engineers are not becoming obsolete, but their role is changing. AI already enables certain engineering tasks to be completed much faster today, sometimes in only a fraction of the time. The result: more projects can be handled within the same timeframe.<\/p>\n

Trust plays a central role in this transformation \u2013 both with regard to job security and the reliability of AI-generated results. Zein stresses that engineering must never rely solely on AI models. \u201cAI can hallucinate.\u201d For this reason, WSCAD combines AI models with strict rule-based systems. \u201cThis produces robust results \u2013 and thus trust.\u201d Only through this combination can acceptance be achieved in safety-critical engineering environments.<\/p>\n

Looking ahead, Zein sees AI evolving from a supporting feature into an active participant in engineering processes. Current AI functions in CAD systems make individual tasks easier, but they are not yet disruptive. \u201cWhat we see today is just the beginning,\u201d he says. The real transformation begins when AI takes over substantial parts of engineering work. WSCAD has taken an initial step with automatic control cabinet generation, but for Zein, this is only the start.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur vision is a system that acts like an experienced electrical designer,\u201d Zein explains. The user defines requirements, the system asks follow-up questions, proposes solutions and performs the design. \u201cThe human then becomes almost like a team leader, guiding a virtual designer.\u201d With existing solutions, some customers are already achieving time savings of up to 50 percent. If AI were to assume much larger portions of engineering tasks, the impact would be significantly greater.<\/p>\n

When it comes to timelines, Zein remains cautious. Initial developments could become visible around 2027, but engineering presents unique challenges. It requires the interplay of strict rules on the one hand and creative reasoning on the other. How quickly AI-based systems will master this balance remains uncertain. \u201cI wouldn\u2019t have thought twelve months ago that we would be at this point today \u2013 and I expect more surprises,\u201d Zein notes.<\/p>\n

For companies looking to start with AI in engineering now, Zein\u2019s advice is pragmatic: begin with a small, motivated team, identify concrete use cases and prioritize them based on impact and effort. Start small, deliver results quickly and communicate progress transparently. Equally important is support from top management. \u201cEither it is important, then the leadership level must pay attention. Or it is not important \u2013 then maybe it should just be left alone.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1770912543090{margin-bottom: 40px !important;}” text_direction=”default”]Read the full interview here.<\/strong><\/a>[\/vc_column_text][nectar_btn size=”large” open_new_tab=”true” button_style=”regular” button_color_2=”Extra-Color-1″ solid_text_color_override=”#000000″ icon_family=”none” text=”Read article online” url=”https:\/\/www.idt.media\/automation\/humans-will-then-become-almost-like-a-kind-of-team-leader\/2605621″][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”1″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1770912261098{margin-top: 20px !important;}” el_class=”small” text_direction=”default”]This article is intended for your personal use only.
