We caught up with MODUL4R coordinator, Dr. Markus Wabner, who quickly run us through the current pain points of #manufacturing and also shed some light on questions like: How do we ensure a rapid response to changing customer preferences? How can we meet the demands for

Flexible and modular CPPS for automated assembly of Printed Circuit Boards (#PCBs)! Our MODUL4R colleagues at FFT are leading the development of a highly flexible software pipeline for automating the assembly of PCBs, ideal for small batch sizes. Here's what makes the software

🟡 Automated Assembly of Printed Circuit Boards. But how do you respond quickly to changing #PCB designs? Or what can be done if you have to assemble #semiconductors of different dimensions? And what should we do differently to make future production plants more flexible and

✔️ Final touches on the cutting-edge eXplainable Decision Support System (#DSS)! Why it matters? It empowers users not just to know what to do but to truly understand why. By combining Counterfactual Generation, #AI models and domain expertise, the DSS delivers clear,
