During recent years, several digital developments have been introduced
into the manufacturing industry with the target of improving the
flexibility of manufacturing systems, based on improved planning and
processes. This improvement has been usually focused on gaining the
productivity of the manufacturing system itself and adapting to customer
demands in midterm periods. However, in times of rapid market changes,
crises, and natural disasters this slow adaptation to drastic changes of
demands and global value chains is not acceptable anymore.
RaRe2 project
aims to introduce the smart connection of sustainable and digited
manufacturing solutions to enable rapid configurable and
crisis-resilient manufacturing systems, which can quickly ramp-up to
full production speed for the new societal and customer demanded
products.
RaRe2 is characterized by significant innovations in 8 areas:
| SO Addressed | Main Innovations brought by RaRe2 |
|---|---|
| SO1 - Early Detection | Sector range specific early detection software. |
| SO2 - Digital Twins |
Standardized system level digital manufacturing twin. Standardized system level digital logistics twin. Automatic generation and simulation of alternative value chains. |
| SO3 - Workers |
Skill gaps detection and methods for standardizing reconfigurable trainings. Reconfigurable mixed-reality assistance and training for manual workplaces. |
| SO4 - Platform | Holistic Modular ecosystem platform for fast interactive decision support. |
| SO5 - Ecosystem | Certification standard, collaboration methodologies, best practices. |
