SUMMARY:RICAIP at Hannover Messe 2025
DESCRIPTION:Part of the DFKI Booth | Hall 2\, Stand B32 \n\n\n\nHannover Messe is one of the largest and most important international trade fairs focused on industrial technology. Held annually in Hannover\, Germany\, it attracts thousands of visitors and exhibitors from around the world. The fair showcases innovations and trends in areas such as automation\, digital manufacturing\, artificial intelligence\, energy solutions\, industrial robotics\, and other key technologies shaping the future of industry. It is an ideal platform for networking\, exchanging knowledge\, and presenting new products and technologies. Participants\, ranging from small startups to global corporations\, have the opportunity to establish business connections and gain insights into the latest developments in the industrial sector. \n\n\n\nAt Hannover Messe 2025\, RICAIP will present a fully functional demonstrator showcasing the fundamental principles of flexible production using a miniaturized manufacturing cell as a part of the DFKI Booth at Hall 2\, Stand B32. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout our demonstrator\n\n\n\nAbout RICAIP Testbed Prague\n\n\n\nContact\n\n\n\nLearn more at DFKI website\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAI for Automated Modular Production: Cooperative robotic production cell for modular retrofitting\n\n\n\n\n\nTo stay competitive in dynamic markets\, manufacturing companies must adapt flexibly to changing production conditions and objectives. Modular manufacturing concepts enable the production process to be divided into individual\, automated production steps without manual programming or configuration. \n\n\n\nThe European research project RICAIP (Research and Innovation Centre on Advanced Industrial Production) introduces a fully functional demonstrator that shows the fundamental principles of flexible production using a miniaturized production cell. The cooperative system\, which consists of two KUKA robots – one stationary and one mobile – autonomously dismantles various types of electric batteries\, replaces specific components\, and assembles still-usable battery modules into new units. These can be repurposed as large stationary batteries for households or businesses\, for example. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe demonstrator combines various AI technologies\, such as machine learning and computer vision\, with collaborative robotics\, network communication\, edge computing\, and classic automation technology. The centerpiece is the automatic planner\, developed by project partner CIIRC at the Czech Technical University in Prague. The planning software compares available resources with the machine functions and independently creates the production sequence – without manual programming or configuration. Moreover\, the planner is integrated in an industrial Manufacturing Execution System developed and operated by T-Mobile. \n\n\n\nThe modular structure of the robotic production cell\, the seamless integration of individual production machines\, and the dynamic\, machine-based rescheduling of production steps make this concept unique. The demonstrator serves as proof of concept for the automated retrofitting of multi-component products and can be transferred to different product types. \n\n\n\n\n\nMeet the Researchers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPavel HradeckýTeam Leader\, Researcher RICAIP Testbed PragueCIIRC CTU \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJiří ŠtefanResearcher RICAIP Testbed PragueCIIRC CTU \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRICAIP Testbed for Industry 4.0\n\n\n\n\n\nTestbed is an experimental infrastructure of the RICAIP Industrial Testbed Core.
