RESEARCH PROJECT MetamoFAB
The integrated yet modularly-structured RQM (Real-Time. Quality. Manufacturing.) integrates, supports, and backs up in real time nearly all close-to-production flows and processes horizontally along the entire value creation chain, from supplier to customer, and vertically, from the ERP systems to the machine controllers. Our understanding of Industry 4.0 is based on precisely these topics. The goal is continuous improvement of all processes relating to production.
For years we have been involved in various research projects: e.g. Currently MetamoFAB – a project with the goal of allowing medium-sized companies to transform themselves into Industry 4.0 companies.
Here we are working with our consortium partners Budatec, Festo, Fraunhofer IPK, Infineon, Siemens, LSWI, Universität Stuttgart.
This research and development project is supported with funds from the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research [Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (BMBF)] in the framework concept “Research for the production of tomorrow‿ and supported by the Projektträger Karlsruhe (PTKA).
