The new era on human centered robotics in Europe with user friendly, plug and play solutions
PROJECT SUMMARY
SHOP4CF, Smart Human Oriented Platform for Connected Factories
SHOP4CF aims to find the right balance between cost-effective automation, repetitive tasks and involve the human workers in areas such as adaptability, creativity and agility where they create the biggest added value. Also to pursue the highly-connected factory model to reap the benefits of all the data generated within the factory.
CORPORATE PILOTS
SHOP4CF OFFERINGS
Facilitated by a pan-European network of Digital Innovation Hubs (DIH), RAMP, the Robotics and Automation MarketPlace, makes the automation value chain effective and connects manufacturing companies with providers of the optimal robotics solutions and vice versa.
30 components, offered under a common architecture based on RAMI 4.0 and FIWARE Technologies, support humans in production activities and provide basic implementation blocks of human-centered manufacturing solutions.
Up to 100k equity free funding, technical and business support to SMEs, selected through 5 open calls.
Testing of SHOP4CF technologies in line with the real industry needs, facilitated by pilots at BOSCH, VW, Arcelik and Siemens.
A vibrant and growing community around the platform necessary to create the adoption critical mass and provide support.
Standardisation in the areas of collaborative robotics, AGVs and use of IoT devices on the shopfloor.
MARKETPLACE
Facilitated by a pan-European network of Digital Innovation Hubs (DIH), RAMP makes the automation value chain effective and connects manufacturing companies with providers of the optimal robotics solutions and vice versa.
