Comment: The project focuses on ICT for agile and environmentally friendly manufacturing. The advanced level of automation that the fully integrated (laser) welding station will offer, will allow the approach not only for mainstream high-volume manufacture, but also for small-series production. The application of the laser scanner, for instance, allows fast, versatile programming of laser paths, which can be altered for each product, if necessary. The dual-wavelength nature of the scanner will facilitate a fast change-over between the welding of copper and aluminium interconnections. Smallscale manufacturing (and to some extent large-scale manufacturing) requires traceability of products, through its production life and its in-serve lifecycle. Using the same laser source for marking will facilitate this aspect of small-series production.

Comment: Considering that industry may be slow at adopting new control and manufacturing technologies, PRIME was designed to interface with legacy control systems. This is an important design principle as PRIME users have to develop communication libraries to interface with their control system as opposed to developing a pug and produce solution from scratch.

Comment:

Demonstrator 2 – DDSS Validation of Life Cycle Cost (LCC) analysis integrated with Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Decommissioning Decision Support System. The End OF Life (EOL) decision support requires the maintenance history of a machine tool . A special and dedicated SW module is in charge of collecting the necessary informations related to components directly from the machines control system.

Comment: The project created a data integration layer in order to integrate the different data storages, from structured data sources and unstructured files and web sources. Security and trust will be handled by the network layers below the data protocols. Furthermore, data are collected from the fields thanks to PLM Data service, returning valuable knowledge to the stakeholders. "Metrology-driven Manufacturing in the Automobile Industry" as developed in LD is the data storrage and data mining to deduce case and effect realtion in order to optimze the processes.
