About: Strategy to create a Digital Single Market
Manufacturing sector in the European Union accounts for• 2 million enterprises• 33 million jobs and• 60% of productivity growth
Industry, SMEs, researchers and public authorities make the mostof new technologies
Path to digitise European industry…

Robotics and Cobotics Projects for SME‘sEuropean Research and Innovation Programme
Horizon 2020 since 2014
Horizon Europe from 2021 to 2027

Bugdet 80bn€Bugdet 100bn€• EU Partnership (PPP)European Factories of the Future Research Association (EFFRA)• Our Example: Robotics, Cobotics and Services
Investigated and analysed in the EU mandate less from the point of view of technicalfeasibility than from the point of view of co-existence and interaction with and effects forand on humans - especially for SME's

9European research and consortia landscape on IIoT
• European research and consortia landscape on IIoT
(Industrial Internet of Things)strongly influenced by smart manufacturingand OT/IT convergence (AIOTI WG3)
• Central leadership on the part of Brussels is mostly united in thecorresponding research and funding programmes under the umbrella ofHorizont 2020 and the upcoming Horizon Europe

ICT Innovation for Manufacturing SMEs
• Factories of the Future initiative designed to support adaption of innovative ICT in EU manufacturing SMEs
• Eleven ‘Factories of the Future’ projects as Integrated Projects (IPs) and two ‘roadmapping’ projects
In regard of Robotics and Cobotics the following three ones are the most important:HORSE• Smart integrated Robotics system for SMEs controlled
by Internet of Things based on dynamic manufacturing
processes aims to bring a leap forward in themanufacturing industry proposing a new flexible modelof smart factory involving collaboration of humans,robots,• AGV’s (Autonomous Guided Vehicles) and machinery torealize industrial tasks in an efficient manner.

ReconCell• proposes to develop a widely autonomous robotic workcell that will allow very short,
self-adaptable and affordable changeovers under the conditions demanded and based on
end-user needs.
• this will be achieved with the minimum use of additional resources over the system’s
lifetime

http://www.reconcell.eu/#about13European Robotics Challenges• Launch and run three industrially-relevant challenges• 1.) Robotics based Reconfigurable Interactive Manufacturing Cell
• 2.) Robotics based Shop Floor Logistics and Manipulation• 3.) Robotics based Plant Service and Inspection• Empowering robotics platforms and benchmark infrastructures• Sustainability and adaptability to end users

Man/Machine Interfacing and Robotics• Aim of the project is a healthy workplace of workers to increase thecompetitiveness of manufacturing companies by creating optimalenvironment. Support the integration and cooperation of humanautomation.
• Support the worker on the production line with specific instructions
for carrying out certain activities. This is achieved through the use ofAugmented Reality.
• Increases the well-being of the worker through the use of a (robotic) exoskeleton to help the worker
make specific efforts and prevent and avoid possible injuries, which also has a positive effect onproductivity.
• The virtual modelling of the factory aims to monitor production performance in manufacturing using
values obtained from a virtual representation of the plant based on the real production environment.

Framework for workplace adaptation

http://www.manuwork.eu 16

Human-automation load balancing method• Robotics and Cobots: Develop a human-automation loadbalancing method that determines the optimal trade-off
between automation and human involvement at a shopfloor workplace, taking into account the needed
flexibility for the process, the available Skills (offeredboth from human and machines), the safe integration ofhuman and automation into the process and the overallload of the line.

• Develop a method for measuring worker satisfaction,
safety and health at work, i.e. “ergonomics climate”, via
an online estimation of factors using a set of sensors at
the shop floor. (i.e. SAMSUNG Gear, FitBit)• Develop an advanced shop-floor tool, facilitating AR
technologies, (i.e. Google Lens, Microsoft Hololens)
which will be used for knowledge capturing,
networking, guidance and decision support. This will
be developed through a user-centred development
approach based on usability engineering lifecycle
methodology with the assistance of an expert
group consisted of human and social scientists andengineers.

17

The platform• aims to develop joint recommendations
for all stakeholders, that serve as thebasis for a consistent and reliable
framework• will initiate alliances and networks at
the precompetitive stage which support
the evolution of the entrepreneurial skills
and energy present in Germany.

THE CONCEPT FACTORY OF FUTURE "en France"
The Factory of the Future is a generic concept thatis part of a general awareness of the importanceof the manufacturing industry in the nationalwealth.
The Factory of the Future is a response to several
simultaneous transitions: energetic, ecological,digital, organizational and societal.
.

19Line Information System Architecture (LISA)• The aim of this project is to develop a Line
Information System Architecture (LISA) thatcan be used in industrial production systems ingeneral and in automotive discrete
manufacturing specifically.

• This architecture aims at capturing raw datafrom the plant of a production system andtransforming these data into understandable
and coherent information in order to easeproduction management decisions.
