The Add+it 2018 offers a platform for science and industry to discuss challenges and topics all across additive manufacturing and innovative technologies. This year one-on-one meetings are organized in the framework of the Add+it symposium by the Enterprise Europe Network. B2B-Meetings are an ideal opportunity to initiate promising contacts in pre-arranged meetings (20 minutes each) with other participants of the symposium.  You register & publish your company profile and collaboration wishes at a dedicated website, browse the participant list and book meetings with delegates of your interest. Approx. one week before the event you receive your individual meeting schedule. Explore the opportunities and find new business, technology or research partners in the field of additive manufacturing. Besides the registration to the symposium an additional free-of-charge registration for the B2B-meetings is necessary at: https://addit2018.b2match.io/

During the Add+it 2018 international experts from ten different countries will share their knowledge in several talks and two parallel sessions to show what additive manufacturing offers today and what can be expected in the future.

September 27, 2018 (9:30-12:10) – before the Add+it

The Add+it is a annual symposium organized by PROFACTOR and JKU IPPE. The first symposium took place in 2015.

Das NextGen3D-Konsortium arbeitet an neuen Prozess- und Materialentwicklungen für industrielle Anwendungen. Ziel ist es, einen zuverlässigen, industriell relevanten Druck von Polypropylen zu ermöglichen!

• Sie interessieren sich für 3D Druck mit Polypropylen
• Sie wollen mehr über die technischen Herausforderungen im FFF Druck erfahren
• Sie interessieren sich für Inline-Kontrollsysteme im FFF Druck
• Sie wollen sich mit 3D Druckexperten austauschen und diskutieren

Innerhalb dieses Workshops werden die Experten des NextGen3D-Konsortiums auf Themen wie Marktübersicht und neueste Entwicklungen im FFF 3D Druck behandeln. Die Teilnehmer erhalten innovative Einblicke und die Möglichkeit, Erfahrungen mit Spezialisten der Branche auszutauschen.

Zielgruppe

Dieser Workshop richtet sich an Lead-User, Entwicklungsingenieure und Entscheidungsträger aus der produzierenden Industrie, die den 3D-Druck bereits einsetzen oder in Zukunft einsetzen wollen.

Wann?

27. September 2017 (14:00 – 17:00)

Der Workshop findet im Vorfeld der Add+it 2017 statt (Symposium on additive manufacturing and innovative technologies).

The “Beyond Smart Robots” workshop is jointly organized by PROFACTOR and TU Wien during European Robotics Forum (ERF2018), the most influential meeting of the robotics community in Europe, held in Tampere, Finland, on 15 March 2018.

Beyond Smart Robots: Enabling Technologies for True Non-Expert Teaching

In conjunction with the European Robotics Forum 2018, Tampere, Finland, March 13-15, 2018

Aim and Scope

Although academic research demonstrated numerous ways to easily program robots, most of them have not become industrial reality yet. Current industrial robots are still difficult to program, leading to high changeover times when new products are introduced. This is especially challenging considering new trends like high product variants and low lot sizes. In order to compete with global markets, the factories of tomorrow have to close this gap soon.

At the same time, new technologies arising from other scientific branches bring disruptive changes with unexpected opportunities. For example, recent advances in Deep Learning endow robots with “human-level” cognitive capabilities. In some domains, they have even surpassed human skills, e.g. image classification or strategic games. Augmented Reality, as another example, has grown up from the infancy and is a major interaction technology used in gaming industry and modern mobile phones.

Target Audience and Topics

This workshop aims to find synergies between different fields of science to aid in the application area of non-experts robot teaching for industrial processes. In order to limit the high number of possible processes, the focus is on assembly.

The following topics are of interest (but not limited to):

• Enabling technologies for teaching robots
• AI / Deep Learning for robots
• Tools and components that aid in teaching robots
• Augmented reality for teaching robots
• User interaction modules

The workshop will bring together researchers from relevant disciplines to exchange ideas and results towards the goal of boosting learning capabilities of robotics in the factory of the future. The workshop is structured with invited talks that provide both the industrial and academic perspective on the field of teaching robots for industrial environments. The talks present the challenges, new research opportunities and some success stories in this field. The talks are structured with time for questions and interactions to engage the audience and consolidate their point of view.

Invited Talks

• Thomas Madsen Almdal, Danish Technological Institute
• Walter Wohlkinger, Blue Danube Robotics
• Jacek Malec, Lund University
• Kathleen Delang, Fraunhofer IWU
• Mildred Puerto Coy, Tecnalia

Important Dates

Workshop: 15 March 2018, 08:30 – 10:00 (Maestro, Tampere Hall, Tampere, Finland)
