LG AI-Powered Laundry Technology: Smarter Washing and Drying
Discover how LG AI-powered laundry technology brings intelligent fabric care, optimised washing motions and convenient drying functions to everyday laundry. Through LG AI Core-Tech, selected LG washing machines and dryers combine advanced motor and component engineering with artificial intelligence to help tailor laundry performance to different loads.
Available technologies include AI DD™, AI Wash, AI Dry™ and AI DUAL Inverter™. Depending on the appliance model, these features can help adjust washing motions, optimise drying time and temperature, and support energy-conscious operation.

What Is LG AI Core-Tech?
LG Core-Tech refers to the underlying technologies and engineering used in LG home appliances. With AI Core-Tech, LG combines this engineering with artificial intelligence to help control key appliance functions and tailor performance to particular needs.
In laundry appliances, this approach focuses on how washing machines handle different fabrics and loads, and how dryers manage drying time and temperature. Rather than using the same settings for every situation, supported AI functions can use load information to help optimise the selected washing or drying process.
The actual functions depend on the appliance. AI sensing is subject to specific load sizes and programme conditions, and not every LG washer or dryer includes all AI features.
Key LG AI-Powered Laundry Technologies
1. LG AI DD™: Intelligent Fabric Care
LG AI DD™ combines deep-learning technology with 6 Motion Direct Drive to analyse supported laundry characteristics and optimise washing motions.
By helping select suitable drum movements, AI DD is designed to provide tailored fabric care while maintaining effective washing performance. It is particularly useful for households that wash different types of everyday clothing and want assistance choosing appropriate washing motions.
- Fabric-aware washing: Uses supported load and fabric information to help determine washing motions.
- Six washing motions: Combines different drum movements through LG 6 Motion Direct Drive technology.
- Optimised wash performance: Adjusts supported washing actions according to the detected load.
- Simplified motor design: Direct-drive technology connects the motor to the drum without the conventional belt-and-pulley arrangement.
LG specifies that AI sensing is activated under certain conditions, including loads below 3 kg for the AI DD function described on its AI Core-Tech page. Sensing may not operate when the Steam option is selected. AI Wash should be used with similar fabric types and suitable detergent, and not every fabric can be detected.
2. LG AI Wash: Adaptive Washing Motions
AI Wash is a washing function available on selected LG appliances. It uses supported sensing information to help optimise washing motions based on the laundry type.
Instead of treating every load identically, AI Wash is designed to adapt the washing process to the characteristics it can detect. This can help support fabric care and efficient washing, particularly when handling suitable loads of similar fabric types.
AI Wash does not eliminate the need to check clothing care labels. For the best results, sort laundry appropriately, use a suitable detergent and choose the programme recommended for your garments.
The sensing capability and supported load limits differ by model. Check the specific washing machine’s instructions for the correct operating conditions.
3. LG 6 Motion Direct Drive: Different Motions for Different Fabrics
LG 6 Motion Direct Drive technology uses different drum movements to support the washing process. The motions are designed to provide different types of fabric handling rather than relying on a single movement throughout the cycle.
Depending on the model and programme, these movements can include actions such as agitating, swinging, rotating, rubbing, power washing and compressing.
When combined with AI DD on supported washing machines, 6 Motion technology provides the movement options used to tailor washing actions to the detected load.
The available motions and programme combinations depend on the washing machine model.
4. LG AI DUAL Inverter™: Intelligent Drying Control
LG AI DUAL Inverter™ technology is used in selected LG dryers to help control drying performance. By detecting information such as laundry weight and moisture levels, supported systems can adjust drying time and temperature to suit the load.
This helps the dryer work towards an appropriate drying result without relying on exactly the same settings for every load.
Potential advantages include:
- Load-responsive drying: Uses supported weight and moisture information to adjust the drying process.
- Controlled temperature and time: Helps tailor the drying programme to the laundry.
- Energy-conscious operation: Inverter technology and suitable drying programmes can help manage energy use.
- Convenient laundry care: Supports automated drying on compatible models.
Actual drying time and energy consumption depend on the load, fabric type, selected programme, moisture level, room conditions and the specific dryer.
5. LG AI Dry™: Drying Tailored to the Load
AI Dry™ is a drying function available on selected LG dryers. It uses supported information about laundry weight, fabric type and moisture to help determine suitable drying time and temperature.
By adapting the drying process to the load, AI Dry is designed to help manage drying time and energy use while aiming for an appropriate drying result.
For best performance, avoid overloading the dryer, separate items according to their care labels and clean the applicable filters as instructed.
LG notes that AI sensing on the relevant AI Dry function is activated under specified conditions, including loads below 5 kg. The function should be used with similar fabric types, as not all fabrics can be detected.
6. Energy Efficiency Through Inverter Technology
LG’s inverter technologies are designed to control motor or compressor operation according to the appliance’s requirements. In compatible laundry appliances, precision control and suitable operating programmes can contribute to energy-conscious performance.
LG’s AI Core-Tech page references energy-efficiency classes such as A-55%, A-40% and A-30% for selected washing machines. These ratings are based on the applicable European energy-efficiency classification and should not be assumed to apply to every LG washer sold in Malaysia.
For a meaningful comparison, check the exact model’s energy label, programme conditions and local specifications. Actual energy use will vary according to how the appliance is installed and used.
7. Durability, Noise and Vibration Control
LG’s Direct Drive motor design connects the motor directly to the drum, reducing the need for the conventional belt-and-pulley arrangement. LG describes this simplified design as having fewer parts than traditional systems.
The direct motor connection and integrated components are also designed to help reduce noise and vibration during operation.
Selected LG laundry appliances come with a 10-year parts warranty for specified inverter motors or compressors. Warranty coverage varies by product and generally applies to the named component rather than the entire appliance. Check the warranty terms for your exact model, including any labour charges and exclusions.
Benefits of LG AI-Powered Laundry for Everyday Life
