Innovation in Measurement

Calibration of Measurement Devices – Conventional and with Artificial Intelligence
Industry 4.0 deploys a wide variety of sensors to monitor various parameters along the manufacturing processes and environment supervision. Instrument calibration enables the manufacturing units to have confidence in the results that they monitor, record and control. If the instruments are not calibrated, they will produce incorrect measurements, thus affecting the final products. Companies who take their responsibility seriously and wish to establish long-term business relationships therefore need to calibrate their equipment regularly. Join us to gain insights into the scientific fundamentals concerning the calibration of measurement devices. Both the conventional approach and the new approach by artificial intelligence will be explained! Thursdays with innovationlabs.my 😉!

Innovation in Manufacturing

Digital transformation is not a simple task and requires the coordinate between equipment, people, processes and software. Integration is key and ease of use and user adoption is the answer to successful transformation.

The Singapore Manufacturing Consortium and Arcstone will walk through use cases of how these elements work in harmony to bring about improvements in efficiency, quality and productivity, and leads companies to better utilize data to enhance time delivery, transparency and ultimately build a stronger competitive advantage.

We’ll show how even small and micro manufacturers can get started with a free unlimited use toolsets called *arc.lite* to get everyone on the same level digital playing field to be more transparent and competitive in this intense manufacturing marketplace.

Innovation in Manufacturing

Industrie 4.0 connects all parties involved in business processes in the manufacturing and process industry. Information from suppliers, customers and within your own company is connected and transparently available. Workpieces and machines manage the production autonomously – flexible, efficient, resource-saving.

An architecture model as reference to build the Industry 4.0 ecosystem is necessary. This model is called Reference Architectural Model Industrie 4.0 (RAMI 4.0). In this webinar, we will reveal what RAMI 4.0 is, and why it is an important reference architecture for the enterprises, system integrators, network designers and software developers in developing digital systems and solutions for Industry 4.0.

Innovation in Manufacturing

Developments in chemistry allowed the beginning of a new era where new products became available based on materials designed by man, for instance, corrosion-resistant stainless steel.

In this webinar, Prof. Dr.-Ing. Marc Wettlaufer from Heilbronn Materials Center will reveal why are stainless steels stainless, and the art of combining teaching, research and industrial cooperation ─ the German way.

Innovation in Manufacturing

Data drive values and increase the productivity of manufacturing. However, the data collection from omni-channel operations, such as machines and IoT devices, social media, e-commerce, and enterprise solutions, are usually in high volume, velocity, variability and veracity, and are stored in different places with different formats. Therefore, having an efficient big data management is crucial. Traditional manufacturing enterprises lack the standards, skills, knowledge and technologies to meet these challenges.

Join Dr. Lim YeeMei, the CEO of GMCM, and learn how to manage big data challenges and design the architecture framework for data-driven manufacturing. You will learn from an use case for such instantiation of the architecture, which is a fully automated mini factory that enables individualized production.

Innovation in Manufacturing

The availability of affordable and accurate digital sensors and the definition of low power narrow band network technologies have resulted in numerous applications for the Internet of Things (IoT). However, the spread of a massive number of sensor nodes over a potentially large area has some implications on the operational parameters of nodes and networks.

In this webinar, Prof. Dr.-Ing. Ansgar Meroth from Heilbronn University of Applied Science in Germany will firstly give an overview on available sensor technologies, and their applications. Secondly, networks such as Narrow Band IoT, SigFox and LoRaWan are explained and compared. Furthermore, we discuss training and education aspects for these technologies in order to enable future engineers to design and apply their own network application.

The seminar is aimed at academics and practitioners who want to start with IoT networks and need an overview on existing affordable technologies.

Innovation in Manufacturing

Through the digitalization of manufacturing, an abundancy of data is available from machines, sensors and operations. Data Analytics uses methods from statistics and machine learning in order to optimize processes, continuously monitor product quality and improve maintenance of equipment.

This webinar addresses the success factors and challenges for implementing Manufacturing Analytics in Companies: How to ensure thorough data and domain understanding? How to improve availability and quality of data? Which tools are necessary? What algorithms for data analysis are recommended?
The talk concludes with an example use case for machine maintenance from the EU research project IMPRESS (Pattern-based Planning of Smart Services).

Join us and exchange thoughts with our experts Dr.-Ing. Sebastian von Enzberg and Mr. Arthur Wegel from Fraunhofer IEM.

Dr.-Ing. Sebastian von Enzberg heads the Industrial Analytics group at Fraunhofer IEM. With his team, he supports the selection, planning and implementation of data-based applications and artificial intelligence in corporate use. The focus is on applications in production such as smart maintenance or data-driven process optimization, but also on the evaluation of data from the value chain or product development.

Innovation in Management

Muar is praised as one of ASEAN’s cleanest cities. One of UTHM’s campus is located there. In answering the local needs, UTHM initiated UTHM@Muar Living Lab to leverage on the university innovation initiatives for the benefit of the local people. Since 2018, the collaborative efforts between the researchers and the local authorities have enabled several successful innovations, for example, augmented reality murals, MPM smart bin and MPM Smart Covid Tracker. Some of these innovations had been awarded with recognitions, and could potentially be extended to the other cities.

Dr. Azizi will share the interesting journey of innovation, vibrant university-industry-society ecosystem, challenges and opportunities for future potential collaborators and innovators. Come and join us!
