DigiMach: Digital Transformation of the Machining Value Chain for Sustainable Growth
DigiMach is a transnational 3-year collaborative approach that will transform manufacturing across the Meuse-Rhine region by bringing AI, IoT and robotics to small and medium-sized enterprises in the machining sector. The project will assist more than 150 SMEs to adopt smart, digital tools, through hands-on pilot projects, training and a multilingual knowledge-sharing platform. By boosting operational efficiency, cutting costs and enabling data-driven decision-making, DigiMach ensures that critical skills and expertise are preserved while positioning the region as a hub for advanced, sustainable manufacturing.
Our team at the Department of Advanced Computing Sciences (DACS), one of the 3 participating departments at Maastricht University, consists of 3 researchers who are also Principal Investigators of the project.
- Dr. Anna Wilbik, Professor in Data Fusion and Intelligent Interaction (co-PI)
- Dr. Charis Kouzinopoulos, Assistant Professor of the Internet of Things (IoT) (co-PI)
Dr. Marcin Pietrasik, Postdoctoral Researcher (co-PI)
