CONVERGING Takes Center Stage at the European Robotics Forum 2024

The CONVERGING project was a prominent presence at the recent European Robotics Forum 2024 (ERF 2024) held in Rimini, Italy, from March 13th to 15th, 2024. Organized under the scientific responsibility of the University of Bologna, ERF brings together leading minds in robotics from across Europe, fostering collaboration and innovation in the field.

Visual Components Showcases Expertise

Our valued industrial partner, Visual Components, played a key role in representing CONVERGING at the event. Their booth showcased a wide range of solutions in manufacturing simulation and offline programming, core areas of expertise that contribute significantly to the project's success.

Converging: Building the Digital Factory of the Future

Beyond their impressive portfolio, Visual Components also highlighted their participation in the CONVERGING project. Their role focuses on providing critical technologies for the development of Digital Twins within the project's pilot cases.

Digital Twins are virtual representations of real-world systems that allow for continuous monitoring, optimization, and prediction of performance. In the context of CONVERGING, these Digital Twins will play a crucial role in enabling collaborative human-robot post-processing within Additive Manufacturing (AM) production lines.

Collaboration Leads to Progress

Our participation at ERF 2024 underscores the importance of collaboration in achieving the ambitious goals of the CONVERGING project. By fostering connections with leading researchers, technology producers, and end-users, we can accelerate advancements in human-centered AM production and contribute to a more sustainable and efficient future for industry.
