Collaborating with industry partners, the study investigates the use of digital design and robotic technology to optimize the utilization of residual wood. By employing computational design, custom products can be generated from mixed wood batches, enabling circular applications previously unattainable …

This paper describes some explorations on the concept of disassemblability as an important circularity indicator for products because of its severe impact on reuse value. Although usefulness of the concept for determining disassembly strategies and for improving circular product design clearly shows …

It is argued that if we decide to keep a technology or practice if we get at least one positive result from it, we do not have to change anything at all. Even factory farming, and wars, have some positive results... Due to the complexity and all the "smart" devices and apps, we may have started to feel, …

Dit document geeft een overzicht van de bevindingen over het Factory-as-a service concept. Gedurende het SMITZH project heeft het lectoraat Smart Sustainable Manufacturing gezocht naar antwoorden op een aantal vragen: Welke initiatieven bestaan er, waar ondernemers elkaar helpen via het beschikbaar …

SMEs in South‐Holland: Digitally Mature? • High‐tech products (AgTech, (Aero)Space, Maritime‐Offshore, MedTech, Composites, Mechatronics • SMEs slow to digitalize • Industry 4.0 Toolkit helps?

MELTING POT is making hidden spaces of Luxembourg's unknown industrial history accessible and brings public life to the sites. Cultural heritage not only needs architectural transformation but also a smart community orientated program. This program is inspired by the history of the site and the values …
