Cobots 4 Smart Assembling Lines
Implementation of a collaborative robot demonstrator for the industrial context. A collaborative robot allows you to work directly with humans in a certain space, as an assistant in a task or as a guide. The robots focus more on repetitive tasks, such as inspection or picking and choosing (“pick and place”). In this demonstrator project, it performs materials recognition, such as plastic or metal, color and shape recognition of an object.

ErgoSafe5.0
Ergonomics and Safety for Industry 5.0
In the Industry 5.0 paradigm productive systems are resilient, sustainable and human-centric. The operational focus is on human-robot collaboration, whether for physical or cognitive support, in order to increase the efficiency and productivity of resources in a systematised and organic way. In this scenario, ergonomics and safety play a central role in the man-machine relationship and in industrial management. The ErgoSafe5.0 project aims to develop technologies that support this transition of production systems within the scope of ergonomics and operational safety, fostering the development of an industry that goes beyond productive efficiency, reinforcing its central role in the society of the future.

Grippers for Flexible Manufacturing
Development of a demonstrator for robotic grippers that work with flexible materials such as paper, leather, fabrics, films and foils. Existing robotic grippers already on the market are capable of working effectively with rigid materials such as rigid polymers and metals. However, existing solutions are not capable of working with textiles in such a way that the requirements of companies/customers are met. Of particular importance is the development of multi-tasking grippers, with the aim of reducing the waiting time when changing parts to be manufactured.

IoTiFy
MES FIWARE-Based Data-Driven IIoT Testbed
Implementation of a MES (Manufacturing Execution System) demonstrator using the Fiware platform. The modular architecture of the system will use reusable solutions that enable the integration of various IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) technologies, Big Data and Artificial Intelligence, in order to drive change in the manufacturing industry through the development of new applications and services with lower cost, speed and effectiveness.

RFID-Portal
Flexible RFID-based traceability system for smart manufacturing
Design and development of a system for the identification/sequencing of product(s), through the use of radio frequency (RF) technology and physical identification tags. As a result of the project, a flexible and adaptive demonstrator will be delivered, which is also representative of the use of RFID technology (Radio Frequency Identification) for different industries, focusing on productive environments in the textile, metalworking, automotive, heating systems, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), paper industries. Also thought for logistics systems, among other environments that prove relevant to CiTin.

Roadmap I4.0
Methodology for implementing Roadmaps for Industry 4.0 in SMEs
Development of an integrated solution to guide the activities of analysis, diagnosis and action planning within the scope of projects management. It is aimed at projects whose objectives are partially or completely focused on the transformation and digitization of processes. The solution includes (1) identification of the level of competence readiness of the organizations (Readiness Assessment), (2) definition of the value chain (Framework), (3) diagnosis of the maturity level for Industry 4.0 standard (Maturity Model), and (4) implementation guide (Roadmap).
