Working Packages

 

MFG4.0-PresentationDownload

The MFG40 project is a collaboration between seven research groups that are represented by five working packages (WP) in the project. The working packages are the following:

WP 1 – Future research – lead by Dr. Jari Kaivo-Oja, University of Turku (UTU)

“We create tools for identifying emerging fields of technology that have potential for revolutionary products and in which of these are suitable for Finland.”

WP 2 – Automation and distributed manufacturing – lead by Dr. Heikki Handroos, Dr. Heidi Piili, and Dr. Kari Ullakko, Lappeenranta University of Technology (LUT)

“We investigate the emerging technologies of Manufacturing 4.0 that empower humans in manufacturing. These include industrial automation, remote operation technology, additive manufacturing and smart materials solutions.”

WP 3 – Decision-making, potential and business models – lead by Dr. Mikael Collan, Lappeenranta University of Technology (LUT)

“We study business models and information fusion for Manufacturing 4.0 Future manufacturing business models will combine digitalization and additive manufacturing on a global scale with many existing industries and in many new ways. Smart new ways to fuse information allow us to make better and more accurate judgments and better predictions to support manufacturing decision-making and automation.”

WP4 – Education – lead by Dr. Juhani Rautopuro, University of Jyväskylä (JYU)

“We concentrate on educational needs of those adults who have difficulties to meet the new demands of working life due to the increase of level of automation. Education systems are analyzed and developed to create a better match for the future demands of labor.”

WP5 – Reshaping social policies – lead by Dr. Heikki Hiilamo, University of Helsinki (HEL)

“How should digital disruption change the current Social Security system in Finland and which are the upcoming challenges and new ways of delivering fl exible, innovative, transparent and bespoke social security solution by 2030?”
