Project
Modelgebaseerd bewerken (Modelgebaseerd bewerken)
Objective In the machining industry, people often talk about adaptive machining, ie taking targeted actions based on the current production situation. The successful application stands or falls on the one hand having correct (real-time) data and on the other hand the associated structured and digitized working methods. The former is increasingly within reach thanks to the ever-growing supply of hardware and software. For the second, one has to take the step towards 'model-based machining', in which parameterized models (formulas) are used to identify the optimal machining process. Within the 'Model-based machining' project, such (academic) models are further developed and converted into practically applicable instruments: online applications (apps) that make use of knowledge available on the shop floor, in order to make these machining models widely applicable and accessible. Specifically, applications are envisaged that provide support in determining cutting conditions. Each of the applications will be accompanied by a training package and demonstrations to facilitate transfer to and incorporation in the workplace.
The project has accomplished significant milestones, including the successful launch of an online platform now accessible to the public following registration.
The platform is available in two languages, English and dutch for a wider reach. The link for the platform is as follows https://www.modelgebaseerdbewerken.be/
This platform hosts 8 practical models aimed at enhancing accessibility and application of relevant tools. Additionally, the project conducted 5 demonstrator events to showcase its initiatives, alongside publishing a total of 46 articles, indicative of its active engagement and dissemination of knowledge. Moreover, 10 webinar events were organized, facilitating interactive discussions and dissemination of information to a broader audience. Complementing these efforts, 6 workshops were conducted, fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange among stakeholders. Overall, these achievements highlight the project's commitment to promoting accessibility, dissemination, and collaboration within its domain.
