Twin-model based virtual manufacturing for machine tool-process simulation and control (TWIN-CONTROL)
Start date: Oct 1, 2015, End date: Sep 30, 2018,
Europe is the world’s largest manufacturer of machine tools but this position is threatened due to the emergence of Asian countries. However, Europe has world-class capabilities in the manufacture of high-value parts for such competitive sectors like aerospace & automotive and this has led to the creation of a high-technology, high-skill industry. European machine tool builders, part manufacturers ...

Sustainable Technologies for Calcined Industrial Minerals in Europe (STOICISM)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,
Europe is a major global producer of industrial minerals. Around 180 million tonnes per year of products are extracted in the EU, with an estimated contribution of €10 billion to European GDP and offering direct employment to some 42,500 people. A secure supply of sustainable mineral products is essential to maintaining the European mining, mineral and manufacturing industries.The main objective ...

LIFECYCLE EXTENSION THROUGH PRODUCT REDESIGN AND REPAIR, RENOVATION, REUSE, RECYCLE STRATEGIES FOR USAGE&REUSAGE-ORIENTED BUSINESS MODELS (T-REX)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2016,
Integrated product-service solutions or Product-Service Systems promote a shift from value in exchange to value in use to satisfy customer needs. In this new landscape, manufacturers do not sell a physical product, but its usage (renting, pay-x-use) or its outcome (pay-x-performance). Companies and supply network should focus on reducing the Life Cycle Cost of the Product-Service Systems and exten ...

Power consumption driven Reliability, Operation and Maintenance optimisation (POWER-OM)
Start date: Aug 1, 2012, End date: Jul 31, 2015,
...tainty of machine reliability at any given time, also impacts on product/production delivery times. It is known also that a worn-out mechanism has higher energy consumption.The use of intelligent predictive technologies could contribute to improve the situation, but these techniques are not widely used in the production environment. Often sensors and monitors required for the production environmen ...

Plug and Play monitoring and control architecture for optimization of large scale production processes (PAPYRUS)
Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2013,
The first objective of the project is plant-wide application of asset management. It lifts the focus from single-component diagnostics to a plant-wide view of both asset performance and asset condition. Secondly, because di-agnostics need to result in actions, diagnostic information (asset information) is used to generate control actions. Control refers to all levels of the automation pyramid, i.e ...
