The aim is to develop a demonstrator for Digital Test and Prototype Production Platform for Metal Active Gas (MAG) Welding. The digital platform can replace repeated physical testing using digital methods. MAG welding is a good case that shows extremely complex relationships between the different steps in
product lifecycle from construction over preparation and manufacture and then in use to step then as a re-manufacture, reworking, etc.
Virtual testing and prototyping greatly reduces the amount of material, time,
energy and discontinued work in product and process development. Their use, however, is often limited to smaller organizational units or functional categories like
designers, processors and manufacturing. To implement new solutions across different functional groups in circular manufacturing contexts are a challenge because of today’s fragmented,
incomplete and unstructured information.
The project focuses in MAG welding. First the industrial cases will be detailed with the help of the industrial partners to whom MAG welding is the central production process. The case specification will mainly be made to specify the requirements for the implementation of the virtual platform considering end of life treatments in a circular economy context. Following this, a generic platform demo will be built that is made up of a database and a knowledge base coupled to a virtual analysis (simulation) tool.
RemProLife aims at improving the use of life-cycle information to achieve more efficient remanufacturing from economic and ecological perpectives.

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.
