2022|DS Technology Established to Expand Smart Manufacturing Capabilities

In 2022, DSA entered into a strategic collaboration with GIGABYTE to establish DS Technology (DST), further integrating capabilities in automation engineering, smart manufacturing, and precision manufacturing while accelerating international market development.

From Automation Engineering to Smart Manufacturing

DS has always developed its technologies around the realities of the manufacturing floor. Building on years of experience in process engineering, automation, and precision manufacturing, we have established end-to-end capabilities spanning process development, equipment engineering, system integration, and production deployment.

From standalone automation and robotic workcells to CNC / FMS and smart factories, DS integrates equipment, processes, and digital technologies to help customers build manufacturing systems that are more efficient, traceable, and scalable.

Building on this foundation, DS developed the SmartCore AI™ smart manufacturing platform and FlexRC™ surface finishing tools and equipment, transforming accumulated manufacturing know-how into modular, scalable, and repeatable technology platforms.
