ZTS Project SenRob 2.0 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. The machining of the surface is a decisive step in the manufacturing process, which significantly influences the quality of the product and requires a direct interaction of the tool with the workpiece surface to be machined. Due to the complexity of the free-form surfaces,...
The aim is to further develop the GrundschutzPLUS activator platform so that it can be used in advisory services after completion of the project. Especially for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), there is an urgent need for action, which will be further strengthened with the further planned legal and regulatory requirements (e.g. NIS2 Directive, Cyber Resilience Act). In the...
SecMa 4.0 – Security Management 4.0 – Cybersecurity for digital productionThe aim of the Saarland project, supported by the ‘Central Technology Programme Saar’ (ZTS), is to develop an automated security management service to automatically generate critical security information from existing production networks and system components. Enriched with other relevant security information, it should be possible to evaluate the IT security level.
