In the future, products are manufactured decentralized – towards a digital factory
VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland, Tampere University of Technology (TUT) and Tampere University of Applied Sciences (TAMK) set up a demonstration of a digital factory. In this demo, different robots located in various facilities of the organisations involved are monitored and controlled remotely from one place. VTT, TUT and TAMK established a joint digital factory demo in the SMACC workspace located in the Tampere Campus Arena. Each organisation has remotely connected its own robot systems to the SMACC workspace from its own facility. The workspace houses the system control room,
Finnish cleantech company Altum is the first company to use ultrasound to remove fouling from industrial equipment with no production stoppages and no equipment disassembly.
