EaSy ML – Assistance Evaluation System for Machine LearningProblemsCost-optimised production combined with high process and product quality is a key promise of Industry 4.0 and the associated digitalisation. There are numerous examples of how machine learning (ML) techniques help to analyze data, gain new insights into production, and optimize production.
BEAT - Bass loudspeaker with dielectric elastomer actuator drive In the by means of the European Regional Development Fund (in short: The ERDF-funded project investigates the use of dielectric elastomers as a drive for bass speakers. Both the dynamic behavior of DE membranes, their control and the necessary electronics are investigated. In the project, the Stamer...
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...
FGAkt - Development of novel shape memory actuators for use in injection moulding tools In cooperation with several partners, the BMBF-funded project identifies potential actuator applications in injection moulding plants through the use of which they can be designed more efficiently and in order to exploit previously untapped technological potentials. To this end, the corresponding actuators are to be made "smarter" and more energy-efficient in order to...
