Case Study

Efficient identification of spare parts

The goal is a clear and fast identification of spare parts without the involvement of several departments. Ideally by the sales employee or technician himself. Furthermore, the search should run in ONE system to avoid errors and to enable faster processing times.

Case Study

Sensor for hazardous substance detection

A self-sufficient, battery-powered sensor unit is sought that can smell and hear. The sensor sends its data to the cloud via mobile communications. The data is processed in the cloud and the customer is automatically alerted.

Case Study

Linear program optimization

On the basis of mathematical models an optimal production is to be made possible. Thereby the orders, measured by their characteristics and categories, are to be coordinated optimally into the production planning, so that there are no bottlenecks or idle times. Furthermore, target adjustments should be possible: For example, if production is based on maximum contribution margin or maximum quantity.

Case Study

Optical crack detection in the press shop

We would like to identify defective components automatically and optically inline. The components are manufactured on a hydraulic press with a transfer tool with different forming stages. The identification should work flexibly and reliably for different components produced on different tools. The algorithm should support unsupervised learning, since we do not want to teach incorrect components.

Case Study

Fiber reinforced 3D printing

Innovative production approach to combine continuous fiber reinforcement and 3D printing.

Case Study

Customer data validation based on a web service

We need a service that checks manually entered customer data for correctness and completeness, performs scoring for data quality, offers corrections if necessary, and also checks for duplicates in the internal system.

Case Study

Digital sample production

Due to different factors, the same color often has very different effects, so that colors, for example, have to be specifically adapted depending on the surface and the lighting used in order to obtain the same color impression. This is currently done using sample plates, which are often adapted up to 100 times several times, significantly delaying the production process. The samples should be produced digitally in order to show not only color and pattern, but also surface influences such as micro-shading.

Case Study

Multi­machine operation

The aim is to enable one employee to monitor & operate several machines during his shift, each from a different machine. The current status of each roller (breaks, disturbance factors) should be visualized uniformly, e.g. by a control center. The employee should then receive an early signal as soon as a machine needs to be adjusted, stopped or generally intervened. A display of the source of the error would also be optimal.

Case Study

Automation of electroplating

Automation is provided for components in diverse variants, which differ in length and suspension geometry.

Case Study

Configurator for pipe and hose systems

The goal is to increase efficiency in sales and engineering to generate faster response to customer inquiries. This should result in better customer retention and the retrieval of customer and usage data for a more customer-oriented sales approach or new business models should also be possible.

Case Study

Self-adapting machine based on wear

Given is a machine that performs a certain function/processing fully automatically. The result of the machine depends strongly on the performance of a knife. The task is to determine the characteristics of the knife in a harsh environment and provide them to the machine.
