Service Lunch: “Essen, Lernen, Netzwerken”

Organized by the Smart Services Expert Group

Transformation des Servicegeschäftes von Schweizer Industriefirmen

COVID-19 hat in den letzten zwei Jahren Schweizer Industrieunternehmen vor enorme Herausforderungen gestellt. Der Servicebereich war besonders stark betroffen, da dieser auf persönliche Interaktionen mit Kunden angewiesen ist. Zugleich haben digitale Technologien das Servicegeschäft verändert.
Was sind nun die Auswirkungen dieser Entwicklungen auf Schweizer Industrieunternehmen? Wie könnten zukünftige Entwicklungen im Servicegeschäft aussehen? Lassen Sie uns das gemeinsam diskutieren.

ONLINE – Expert Group Meeting – Smart Maintenance

We are pleased to invite you to our next meeting of the Smart Maintenance Expert Group. The meeting will take place online.

Thomas Wuhrmann from Kistler Instrumente AG will talk about

Machine Learning based Cause of Failure Analysis in Injection Molding & Metal Machining

In industrial manufacturing processes, the most important tasks are usually concerned with an improvement of the quality outcome, a reduction of waste and an improvement of the process stability. This applies specifically to injection molding and metal machining with a turning lathe. Injection molding is the state-of-the-art process to produce plastic parts in different shapes and sizes. Machining on the turning lathe allows to perform highest precision process steps on expensive raw materials using specialized cutting tools. In both applications, machine learning allows to harness the process information more effectively to improve the yield of in-specification parts and understanding the quality-determining process mechanisms. In this talk Kistler approaches to implement solutions to realize this in both applications will be presented. In both applications, the insights obtained by machine learning, though different in nature, allow a reduction of waste. In both fields, further investigations are aimed to generalize these models and fully integrate them into the corresponding process automation and control.

Program

14:30-14:45 An Introduction Round.
14:45-15:30 ML based Cause of Failure Analysis in Injection Molding & Metal Machining (Thomas Wuhrmann, Kistler Instrumente AG).
15:30-16:30 Networking on “Wonder”.

Databooster – To support SMEs

HEPIA, HES-SO, OPI, and NTN Innovation Booster Databooster join their forces to support SMEs on their way from a rough idea to a funded research project. On 1st March 2022, a joint event was organized at HEPIA in which 30 interested persons from the industry took part.

After the welcome of OPI (OPI – Office de Promotion des Industries et des Technologies) by Hélène Gache (Directrice at OPI) and HEPIA by Claire Baribaud (Directrice at HEPIA – Haute école du paysage, d’ingénierie et d’architecture de Genève – HEPIA) Nabil Abdennadher (Professor of Computer Science at HEPIA) presented the Databooster objectives and innovation process for the audience. He pointed out that the NTN Innovation Booster will support the preliminary phase of open innovation before it comes to an innovation project.

Two success stories of the last year were presented by SMEs.

First, Andreas Seonbuchner (CEO and partner of CitizenTalk) showcased his journey within the Databooster – starting from first idea discussions with a research group to securing appropriate team partners by a call for participation to the community. An interdisciplinary team with potential customers proceed in shaping further his idea. The vital clarity for implementation options was gained through an Innocheck for a feasibility study (together with an Applied University). Finally, a consortium was founded for an already accepted Innosuisse project.

Thereafter, Sami Jaballah, Co-Founder and CEO of DNEXT Intelligence SA, described his  success with the Databooster: with two matched partners and a solid framework that shaped his idea, he is now preparing the Innosuisse project submission. At one stage, Sami admitted being unsure about his idea. However, thanks to the competence and expertise the Databooster provided, he was able to solidify his relatively vague idea into a structured concept that reached maturation.

After these two presentations, an open discussion on various topics followed, such as the difference between Innovation Booster and Innosuisse Innocheck, confidentiality and IPR, funding model and budget allocation, the definition of innovation, etc. A delicious aperitif concluded the event. 
Many thanks to all persons involved in organizing the event. We are looking forward to many Call for Participations from the attendees.

5. Konferenz Perspektiven mit Industrie 4.0 Synergien und Chancen für die Kreislaufwirtschaft

Die Kreislaufwirtschaft ist der vielversprechende Weg von Industrie, Gesellschaft und Politik, um Ressourcen zu schonen und ein nachhaltiges Wirtschafssystem aufzubauen. Die Technologien und Methoden der Industrie 4.0 leisten dabei in der Wertschöpfungskette einen wichtigen Beitrag. Sie befähigen den Markt, die Energie-, Material- und Logistikaufwände zu minimieren und sind damit Wegbereiter für lückenlose Nachverfolgbarkeit von Materialien und Bauteilen, Zustandsüberwachung und Predictive Maintenance, Remote-Services für weltweit verteilten Anlagen und neue digitale Businessmodelle.

In der Konferenz «Perspektive mit Industrie 4.0» werden Lösungen von und für Schweizer KMU präsentiert, die pionierhaft und mustergültig sind. Wir laden Sie ein, sich von diesen Vordenkern und Macher dieser nachhaltigen Industrie 4.0 Philosophie inspirieren zu lassen, so dass Sie diese Lösungsansätze für Ihr Geschäftsfeld aufnehmen, anpassen und gewinnbringend umsetzen können.

GEOSummit – Webinar – Vom Punkt zur Information

Punkt-basierte Auswertungen sind schon immer Teil von räumlichen Analysen gewesen. Mit den technologischen und methodischen Entwicklungen können nicht nur Punktdaten mit neuen Verfahren erhoben, sondern auch über stark erweiterte Auswerte- und Interpretationsmöglichkeiten in einem neuen Massstab ausgewertet werden.

In diesem Webinar geben drei Kurzvorträge aus Industrie und Forschung einen Einblick, wie mit Punkten als Informationsträgern gearbeitet werden kann und was das Potenzial moderner punkt-basierter Analysen ist. Dabei wird der Bogen gespannt von multi-sensoriellen Aufnahmeverfahren über räumliche Verteilungsmuster bis hin zur Charakterisierung von Punkteigenschaften über die Zeit.

Weitere Details folgen in Kürze.
