    The POWDER BED Additive technology will be considered to test new edge devices for process control, towards a ZDM result, and to work on data management and analytics to implement the whole manufacturing process by a platform approach.

    Data monitored from the machine tool and meta-information generated by different applications running at edge level will be collected and elaborated by the data analysis tool to extract useful information to be sent to the decision support system.

       Main technologies that will be adopted in this pilot:

      • Augmented reality (TTS)
      • Sensors system for process monitoring (FRAUNHOFER)
      • Digital twin (TTS)
      • Data analytics (SYNESIS)
      • Decision support system (ATLANTIS)
      • Secure updates sharing with Blockchain tech (EGINEERING)

      The ambition is to create a modular monitoring and control system that can be used with many different sensors and process models. The models need to be adaptable to the actual task, for a specific geometry or dedicated material processing conditions. Real-time process and machine signals need to be analysed in by machine-learning algorithms to find structures and pattern related to the required key quality indicators (critical defects per track, distortion, keeping of dimensions).The system will be also connected to a higher-level factory data interface which allows to exchange process information and reassign the production strategy based on additional factory conditions.
