A Horizon Europe-funded undertaking is making an attempt to construct a digital platform that may facilitate remanufacturing and circularity.
The undertaking, CREDIT, has acquired funding to the tune of €5.6 Million from the European Union’s Horizon Europe programme. It’s particularly focusing on remanufacturing in white items, automotive, telecommunications, and aerospace.
Led by Idener, a Spanish engineering firm, the undertaking plans to assemble a collection of remanufacturing-enabled digital companies, together with AI-based determination assist techniques, DLT-based traceability and high quality management, predictive upkeep, and assist instruments like Augmented Actuality.
The group additionally intends to include efficient coaching and expertise at manufacturing websites through “a comprehensive education and upskilling methodology”.
Digital twin expertise will play a job too, and undertaking coordinator Lidia Parrilla Benitez stated: “Remanufacturing and circularity-enabling initiatives are crucial for reducing waste and extending the lifecycle of products. By integrating Digital Twin technology, we can optimise these processes and innovate with precision, setting a precedent for future advancements towards a greener industry”.
CREDIT will develop 5 manufacturing-focused use instances throughout its lifespan.
“The digital platform built by CREDIT will be applicable across multiple industries via scaled replicability studies and seeks to ultimately achieve TRL7” stated a press release, referring to the Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs) specified within the Horizon 2020 work programme.
Worldwide collaboration is one other key component, and Michael Browne, CEO of CREDIT accomplice Crowdhelix, stated tasks like CREDIT “drive ground-breaking research across multiple manufacturing industries by promoting international collaboration and first-rate science”.
“The project also speaks to the ambitions of the Made in Europe innovation agenda, bringing together leading organisations from European manufacturing ecosystems to nurture their leadership in circular industries, ensuring that Europe has a competitive, green manufacturing sector”.
“Crowdhelix is privileged to contribute to such a significant project by helping to bringing key stakeholders from across the project’s lengthy value chain together”.
