Managing safety risks in Industry 4.0 (SAFETY ASSURANCE 4.0). KU Leuven
The TETRA project "Safety Assurance 4.0 - Management of Safety Risks in Industry 4.0" aims to answer the question of how to ensure that cooperative/collaborative robots, autonomous mobile robots, autonomously guided vehicles and other autonomous systems can operate safely without having to be trapped in a safety cage.
The following concrete objectives have been set for the Safety Assurance 4.0 TETRA project:
1. To draw up a ...
Sustainable Demanufacturing for a circular economy in an industry 4.0 (SUDE 4.0) KU Leuven
Industry 4.0 Product Lifecycle Management: end-to-end digitalization in the manufacturing industry KU Leuven
This project aims to support the Flemish manufacturing industry in producing and marketing sustainable and reliable products more sustainably, while remaining competitive in an international environment. The project will establish a future-proof ecosystem for Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) in collaboration with an industrial advisory board. This allows companies to receive support in implementing PLM and meeting sustainability and ...
Industry 4.0 solutions for optimised value recovery from Waste Electrical and Electric Equipment (WEEE) KU Leuven
Demanufacturing activities consist of the disassembly of products to their separate components for recovery or further recycling as well as the disassembly or destructive processing of the separate components for the recovery of valuable materials. Remanufacturing activities consist of the subsequent cleaning, repairing, as well as refurbishing, upgrading and maintenance of recovered components or entire product assemblies. The potential of ...

TransSIMS: Transition to Smart Industrial Production Systems in Industry 4.0 KU Leuven
Building new Industry 4.0 plants on a “greenfield” is currently hardly realistic for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Giving the long life-times of production facilities, the solution is to be found in transforming the existing machines and systems into interconnected smart machines and systems. For that, IoT (Internet of Things) technologies, which are universally applicable and easy to use, can be exploited to increase the overall ...

Converging Industrial Networks for Industry 4.0 – New challenges for wired Ethernet - CINI4.0 Ghent University
The CINI4.0 project investigates the applicability of technologies, such as OPC UA (Open Platform Communication Unified Architecture), Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) and Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) for industrial applications with an emphasis on seamless integration. The fusion of IT and OT, typical of Industry 4.0, is facilitated by these defining technologies.
CINI4.0 explores new design methods for high-performance ...
