Project runtime: 01.01.2025 - 31.12.2028
The production of typical steel components is characterized by a large number of energy-intensive process steps that have a significant influence on the resulting material and component properties. However, due to a lack of data and data links, there is currently no comprehensive overview of this relationship and therefore no possibility of holistic optimization of the process chain with regard to material properties, energy consumption, CO2 emissions, reuse / recycling capacity. There is no cross-scale ontological description of the processes and materials.
The project lays the foundation for the use of ontology-based data flows in production, quality assurance, product development and recycling/reuse in the industrial practice. The partners Bosch, Schäffler, BMW, DECOIT, LRP and Smoods see the digital transformation for describing the system and component life cycle as a decisive element for securing the future of Germany as an industrial location in international competition. If successful, the ontology-based automated workflow to be developed here will become an industrial standard.
