Project Description

Challange:

The manufacturing environment has become increasingly complex. Due to the enlarged

freedom of action, a focus shift from optimization of existing machinery towards foresighted

purchase of manufacturing facilities can be observed. The challenge is to configure machine

tools according to customers’ needs in order to prevent mismatch of functionalities, incorrect

dimensioning, wasteful operation and poor integration into the manufacturing environment

before problem-appearance.

These issues cause an increase in costs (investment costs, running costs, upgrade costs, …),

energy consumption (fixed energy consumption, non-value adding energy, …) and emissions

that shall be counteracted by the EU framework program for research and innovation ”Horizon

2020”.

Task:

The collaboration aims at the development of a tool box (roadmap, guidelines, models, etc. …)

for machine tool configuration and integration into the manufacturing environment. Following

main issues shall be addressed:

– Mismatch of functionalities

– Poor integration into the factory environment

– Incorrect dimensioning (oversizing/undersizing)

– Wasteful operation
