📣 A new year – a new project 🎉We are excited to dive into another research project with Zellerfeld Shoe Company Inc., funded by Hamburgische Investitions- und Förderbank (IFB Hamburg), Dr Kristoffer Appel and Daniel Reiher. The project "PrintFarm4.0  – Intelligent Production Optimization and Farm Control for 3D-Printed Shoes" aims at the development of 🔗 adaptive, data-driven control strategies that respond to the dynamics of Additive Manufacturing in-process - directly during production. 📈 solutions that allow scaling Additive Manufacturing on an industrial level in high-volume production environments while maintaining quality, robustness, and economic viability across the vast printer farms. 🤝 We are very much looking forward to going ahead and continuing our collaboration with Zellerfeld (Lennard Stoever, Antun Lovro Brkić, PhD, Robin ter Heide, Ole Kröger, Marc Schömann). 💡 We - particularly our kickoff team with Vishnuu Prakash, Bohdan Vykhtar, Matthias Brueck, Ingomar Kelbassa - can't wait to expand our expertise in industrial AM systems, process monitoring, and production optimization.
