Description
Objectives
Manufacturing has to undergo important transformations to reach economic growth and climate neutrality. Data and SMEs are key for such twin transition. How to successfully drive such transformation so that SMEs are capable of valorising their data, connect to data value networks in industrial value chains of strategic economic impact are open and unresolved issues.
The thematic working group on Data in Manufacturing will provide an active community for EDIHs to agree on areas of collaboration, investment as well on effective mechanisms for cooperation and support to drive AI and data economy of manufacturing SMEs.
The thematic working group will bring together stakeholders to define efficient processes to lower the barriers to access high quality data and cutting-edge methodologies and technical assets to increase the digital maturity of data-driven and AI powered manufacturing services and solutions. The thematic group will discuss upon best practices and methods to align with AI/Data in Manufacturing flagship initiatives and incentivise SMEs in the use, sharing and (re)use of data to increase competitiveness, sustainability and circularity of manufacturing services.
A webinar session was hold on 24 January 2024. The focus was on exploring Best Practices from EDIHs providing Data-driven predictive maintenance services while also holding an open interactive discussion on Topics of Interest for future Data in Manufacturing Thematic Working Group (TWG) meetings.
A webinar on Generative AI for industry was hold on 13 June 2024. The webinar focused on the role of generative AI in enhancing digital work instructions and improving manufacturing processes, covering practical use cases, challenges, and innovative approaches like federated learning for mobility feature development.
