2. * To know what are the Factories of Future
* Why it is important
* Building manufacturing vision
* Roadmap to achieve the above
* Expected results

3. Innovative production technologies are the main source
to enhance productivity in manufacturing
Advanced manufacturing and controlling techniques are
required
Hence Factories of future
The focus is on four main technological challenges
• ICTs - next generation of robotics, automation
• Virtual factories - supply chains
• Adaptive production
• High-precision manufacturing

4. Megatrends and manufacturing
It includes:
* Changing demographics
* Globalization & future markets
* Limited use of natural resources
* The challenge of climate change
* Dynamic technology & innovation
* Sharing global responsibility
Hence, a new logic of global socio-economic sustainability
is to be adopted

5. The long term direction: Manufacturing vision
* Factory and Nature: green / sustainable
* Factory as a good neighbor : close to the
customer
* Factories in the value chain: collaborative
* Factory and Humans: human centered

6. Manufacturing the products of the future

7. Economic sustainability of manufacturing
* Realizing reconfigurable, adaptive and evolving
factories capable of small scale production
* High performance production
* Resource efficiency in manufacturing
Social sustainability of manufacturing
Environmental sustainability of manufacturing

9. Advanced manufacturing processes
* The efficiency and sustainability of both the manufacturing
of actual and future products is very much determined by
the processes that shape and assemble the components of
the product
Mechatronics for advanced manufacturing systems
Information and communication technologies
* Collaboration
* Connectivity
* Mobility
* Intelligence
Modelling, simulation and forecasting methods and tools

10. * Cost efficiency
* Optimized consumption of resources
* Short time-to-market
* Increased focus on high added value
components/goods
* Higher and more stable product quality
* Higher productivity under enhanced safety and
ergonomics conditions
* Increased reusability of production systems towards
global interoperable factories

11. * KAP
* Knowledge, awareness, and prediction of man, machine,
material, and method in manufacturing
* The KAP research project aims to provide manufacturing
standards to ensure that every existing resource can be
used as efficiently as possible through the effective
coordination of man, machine, material and method
* KAP stands for knowledge of past performance and
awareness of the present state, enabling the prediction of
future outcomes
* It is estimated that reductions of over 5% per annum in
waste and energy and 10% in time to market

12. * GloNet
* Glocal enterprise network focusing on customer-centric collaboration
* GloNet aims at designing, developing, and deploying an agile virtual
enterprise environment for networks of SMEs involved in highly customized
and service-enhanced products through end-to-end collaboration with
customers and local suppliers
* It aims to:
* Develop a novel way to commonly represent/provide information and
knowledge
* Generate user-customized interfaces which dynamically adjust to different
stakeholders, supporting their access and visualization needs
* Provide these services through the cloud, to be available to anybody, at any
time, from anywhere
* Support the negotiation among all involved parties
GloNet results are expected to bring major improvements in production and
product life cycle support processes

13. * PopJIM
* Plug and produce joint interface modules
* PopJIM creates an innovative solution to performance limiting
problems by optimising mechatronic module alongside a wireless
network
* It is based on a novel concept through which the dynamic stiffness
of the machine is controlled to maintain process stability, rather
than changing the process parameters
The project idea is based on two crucial innovative solutions:
• Replacing conventional machine tool structural joint interfaces by
JIM.
• A wireless network consisting of these modules and a machining
process proxy to enable adaptive control and plug and produce
capability to the JIMs

14. Femtoprint
* Femtosecond laser printer for glass microsystems with
Nano scale features
The project’s three main objectives are:
• Development of a femtosecond laser which is suitable for
glass that can be manufactured on a micro/nano scale.
• Incorporation of the laser into a machine similar to a
printer which is able to position and manipulate glass
sheets of various thicknesses.
• Demonstration of the printer’s ability to generate a
variety of micro/nano-systems with optical, mechanical
and fluid-handling capabilities

15. 3d printing in glass
material
From stacked to laminated
foil

16. * EMC2-FACTORY
* Eco Manufactured transportation means from Clean and
Competitive Factory
* EMC2-Factory is a project which develop a radically new
paradigm for cost-effective, highly productive, energy-efficient
and sustainable production systems

18. Robots for Automation and other
auxiliary process
* MiRoR
* Miniaturised Robotic systems for holistic in-situ Repair and
maintenance works in re-strained and hazardous environments
* MiRoR will develop a fundamentally novel concept of a
Miniaturised Robotic Machine (Mini-RoboMach) system equipped
with intelligence-driven and autonomous abilities
* MiRoR intelligent controller equipped
* Self-positioning
* Reasoning
* Planning
* Adaptation

19. * IFaCOM
* Intelligent Fault Correction and self-Optimizing Manufacturing
systems
* IFaCOM aims to achieve a near zero defect level of manufacturing
for all kinds of manufacturing, with emphasis on production of high
value parts, on large variety custom design manufacturing and on
high performance products
* Improved performance process control to reduce defect output and
reduce the costs of defect avoidance.
* Enhanced quality control to obtain more predictable product
quality.
* Enhanced manufacturing process capability independent of
manufactured parts

20. * Factories of Future clearly states that significant
improvements can be achieved in order to achieve better
results than the existing manufacturing industries.
* It directs how to utilize the limited natural resources
effectively and efficiently. Simultaneously to control the
green house effects.
* It concentrates on
development of new manufacturing
strategies and methods which will be demonstrated in
industrial cases to reduce defects.
* It also allows the customer to have high degree of
customization in choosing the product.
