Cluster Digital Manufacturing

The cluster for digital manufacturing is one of eight clusters within the Swedish Manufacturing R&D Clusters. The cluster focuses on research and development in production systems and production development with great use of digital technologies and related methods and processes.

The cluster for digital manufacturing focuses on production systems and production development with great use of digital technologies and related methods and processes. The vision is to be a nationally recognized industry-driven cluster that promotes collaboration in research and test beds to reach world-class digital manufacturing.

 

Priority research areas

Capability of virtual tools:

Manufacturing data, use and analysis:

Work process and methods for the development of production:

Design of Automated system:

 

What is the advantage of participating in a cluster?

The aim is to develop economically and environmentally sustainable manufacturing systems capable of effectively providing the market with the innovative products of the future. Through the cluster’s working methods, we strengthen Sweden’s continued success as a sustainable industrial nation. You can win this by participating:

In the cluster we have common activities:

In addition, there is the opportunity to participate in other clusters’ activities.
The project is led by industrial chairman (Alf Andersson, Volvo Cars), coordinated by RISE (Magnus Widfeldt, Per Gullander). To support the work, there are also four leaders for the four research areas.
