ZTS Project SenRob ProblemThe manufacturing process of ceramic components results in production-related material supernatants as well as defects that have to be removed in the downstream white plastering process. Grinding requires a direct interaction of the tool with the workpiece surface to be machined, so that contact forces and moments are created. When automating such a process with the help of a robot, a compliant behavior of the robot manipulator is necessary. Especially...
H2SkaProMo – Scalable cyber-physical production systems for the assembly of fuel cell stacks In the joint project funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection (BMWi), 15 partners from industry and research will work together on the production technology for energy technologies of the future. The Saarland University with its Chair of Assembly Systems leads the consortium, while ZeMA is an associated partner.
KIAS AI-supported quotation calculation in special machine construction Problem definition Mechanical engineering has been one of the structurally shaping industries at the Saar for many years. Woll Maschinenbau produces customer-specific special machines and production systems for customers in the automotive, food and medical industries at its Saarbrücken site. Two success-critical processes are of enormous importance for the acquisition and implementation of projects in special machine construction.
RICAIP Research and Innovation Center for Advanced Industrial Production Problem Industry 4.0, the use of artificial intelligence in production and digitization in general have not yet reached the industrial sectors across the board. There are not only differences between small, medium and large companies, but also from region to region. In order to strengthen industrial companies at the European level, it is necessary to...
The Robotix Academy project aims to establish a permanent research cluster for industrial robotics in the Greater Region. Within the framework of the INTERREG V Greater Region 2014-2020 programme, ZeMA was able to successfully submit a project in the field of industrial robotics and human-robot cooperation. Human-robot cooperation is one of the key technologies to ensure the competitiveness of the Greater Region in the future.
Cotemaco – Competitiveness Through Efficient Man & Machine Collaboration Research institutions, chambers and associations from Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands and the UK join forces to build development environments in the manufacturing environment and support SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises) to introduce new technologies into their production. The focus is on human-machine cooperation, which leads to a higher...
Mittelstand 4.0 – Kompetenzzentrum SaarbrückenProblempositionIn the south-west of Germany – region in and around the Saarland and Rhineland-Palatinate – the proportion of industrial jobs related to automotive construction, mechanical and plant engineering as well as steel production and processing is more pronounced than anywhere else. While large companies are already in a good position with regard to the necessary digitization...
