Soft sensing, hybrid modeling and autonomous acting for metal and polymer production
We create the production systems of tomorrow: cognitive, sustainable, and human-centered. Whether it’s a circular saw, a CNC machine, a plastic extruder, or a laboratory device – we transform every system into an intelligent partner in value creation. With state-of-the-art technologies, our solutions enable machines to capture and model data smartly, boost efficiency and sustainability, and keep people at the very heart of production.
Research Approach
Our research approach leverages existing sensor technologies and soft sensor data to extract new insights from available data streams. Based on physical principles, we employ novel hybrid modeling techniques, enhanced with AI-driven refinements. In doing so, we integrate expertise from batch and continuous production as well as from metal and polymer applications. The goal is to realize cognitive, sustainable, and human-centered production systems.
