The unique combination of challenging lectures and workshops in engineering addresses Master's and PhD students who are interested in technology and want to gain insight into the big topics of Industry 4.0 and digital twins.
The Industry 4.0 Summer School programme gives insight into the objectives and strategies of Industry 4.0. It shows the current status of activities and provides information on how to benefit from the ideas linked to Industry 4.0 today. In addition to a theoretical introduction to Industry 4.0, the main technologies and processes for the implementation of Industry 4.0 will be introduced and then addressed in greater detail in a workshop. The aim is actually to enable digitalisation. Starting from the process itself, the digitisation of companies will be introduced and then expanded on using hands-on examples. A model system will be used to demonstrate the technological possibilities.
Additionally, the concept of digital twins is introduced and discussed in detail. Different use cases and workshops are used to gain hands-on experience with digital twins.
