The aim was to have a flexible and efficient production of the product, this is by reducing the number of machines, reducing the number of components, reduced machine surface , document workflow and tasks, and that the learning period should be shortened. This has been demonstrated by reducing the number of stations from the current 10 to 3, the machine surface is estimated to be reduced by over 40 % , a detailed documentation of the work once done by AviX and different types of technologies work instructions have been tested by the company.
The project has been through demonstrations showed how both mobile automation can work , but also communication at stations and between stations and other systems. The mobile stations consists of different software and hardware for communications and different degree of automation , from completely manual tasks to data is done using collaborative robots. Other types of mobile automation has been tested , such as quick couplings for robots to be able to program and install the desktop environment.
The demonstrator has been made in two steps.
In step 1 included the project in the course Automation , machine, Bachelor Chalmers. Students should evaluate current automation CEJN AB and then got together with AH automation, B & R Automation and teachers of the course come to automation solutions . Evaluation methods used are : HTA , DFAA , Dynamo ++ , Avixanalys and measurement of levels of automation .
In step 2, modifications were made ; including prototypes, fixtures and tools through additive manufacturing, the solutions were evaluated and validated by industry.

Every manufacturing company measure and control production performance with a system of KPIs. The aim of the SMART-PM project is to investigate and demonstrate new ways of collecting data, transforming data to information and introducing new decision tools based on valid information and economic models of the production systems.

With globalization and other megatrends as demographic changes and climate change, more knowledge is needed regarding production in an international perspective. PADOK Study Visit in India 2016 have given an increased knowledge regarding how production is conducted in India, some of the challenges producing companies in that region is facing and how Swedish companies interested in investing in production in India could act to establish themselves in the region.

Tooling constitutes a significant part in the economical investment of the hot stamping process. Significant benefits in production economy and environmental benefits can be attained by improving the tribological performance in hot forming operations of automotive components. The main idea of this project is to create tailored tool surfaces on dies made from cheaper and easier to manufacture tool steel for the hot stamping of ultra-high strength steels.
