Problem Addressed
RIS based manufacturing SMEs still lag in digitalisation as a part of their digital transformation.
Addressed problems include:
- Digitalisation is specific to each company;
- Companies and their employees lack experience;
- Changes need to be implemented from within the company by involving their employees in the process.
Solution
Support the case-specific digital transformation of RIS based SMEs by evolving existing production facilities towards Industry 4.0:
- Developing and networking established learning factories;
- Providing testbed solutions to industrial manufacturing challenges;
- Combining learning factory trainings with e-learning and immersive learning;
- Retraining and upskilling the personnel to boost the uptake of advanced technologies by SMEs.
We support the digital transformation of SMEs towards Industry 4.0.
We establish and develop learning factories.
University-based facilities equipped with technology demonstrators and adapted to upskill the personnel via targeted training.
