This has damaged western Small and Medium Enterprises (SME) as supplier. Goal: Integration of Robotics and Additive Manufacturing to make a big step in workforce/labor productivity. Current robotics heavily relies on elaborated models of a static environment and on human configuration and supervision. Therefore robots lack the ability to smoothly adapt to changing situations. They must be tailored to the specific environment to suit changes in both the environments and the applications. These limitations make the existing systems unfriendly for human cooperation and costly to deploy and maintain in real world applications.By combining Robotics and Additive Manufacturing (AM) we set a new goal: Decentralized Customized Manufacturing on Demand.Robotics.We need a new generation of ‘robots that work’: the next generation of industrial robots. These robots are expected to be flexibly deployable, to receive work instructions from non-specialist employees, and to operate safely side-by-side with humans. ‘Robots that work’ will be team players instead of unsafe, intrusive and complex machines.See: ‘Factory in a Day’; http://www.factory-in-a-day.eu/ and the Delft Robotics Institute: http://robotics.tudelft.nl/Additive Manufacturing.AM processes fabricate products directly from digital 3D model data. AM offers unprecedented possibilities in shape complexity, graded materials, less material use and custom geometries. it is possible to use AM for one-off products because AM machines are modules in a digital workflow. The added value of our research is focussed on the flexibility in the design of the product. See: http://www.io.tudelft.nl/?id=98394

Robotics Institute - Robotics.Tudelft.Nl

TU Delft Robotics Institute unites all the university’s research in the field of robotics. Its main challenge is to get robots and humans to work together effectively in unstructured environments, and real settings. Within the institute both the ‘hard’ robot disciplines (mechatronics, embedded systems, control and AI) and the ‘soft’ robot sciences (human-machine interaction, user interaction, architecture, ethics and design) have a prominent presence. By joining forces, and aligning research, education and valorisation, TU Delft Robotics Institute takes a leading role in the creation of the next generation robotics.To get a complete overview of the developments in the field of robotics - and the institute’s vision on these developments - download the position paper to read more.http://www.robotics.tudelft.nl/?q=content/research-themes-projects

The Design Engineering department focuses on education and research of the construction and technical aspects that play a role in the development and design of products. The research activities in the section Reliability and Durability are aimed at increasing the effectiveness of Embodiment Design by facilitating improved technology selection methodologies, research on emerging materials, as well as by developing design rules for products in order to improve functionally, and reliability and durability during service.

The LDA is a platform in the region Limburg, the Netherlands for companies and representatives of the field of Industrial Design Engineering. The aim is to exchange networks, ideas and experiences and, where possible, put Limburg on the map within the (inter) national field of product design.The objectives of the LDA are:• Realization and promotion of networks between the members of the association.• Promotion of product design in the province of Limburg and the Euregion.• Discussion partner and a sounding board with regard to design in Limburg.• Informing SMEs about design.Website: http://www.lda.nl

Het Océ Museum is in 1982 opgericht om het erfgoed van Océ veilig te stelen, te bewaren en te presenteren in een ‘gesloten’ bedrijfsmuseum.Het Océ Museum is in de laatste tentoonstelling (2022) geslaagd om de huidige, innovatieve producten te koppelen aan het rijke erfgoed uit het verleden dat teruggaat tot 1877. In zeven thematische verhalen worden de bezoekers meegenomen op een reis door de tijd. Van boterkleursel tot kopiëren en uiteindelijk het printen van de wereld. Naast de ontwikkeling van technologie en producten komt ook de belangrijke culturele en economische rol die het bedrijf heeft gespeeld in de regio aan bod in het museum.Het van oorsprong Venlose bedrijf Océ groeide in anderhalve eeuw uit van een start-up tot een wereldleider in hightech printsystemen. Op het hoogtepunt is Océ actief in meer dan tachtig landen en werken er wereldwijd bijna 25.000 mensen. In 2009 wordt het toenmalige Océ onderdeel van de Canon Groep en in 2020 verandert de naam in Canon Production Printing.

Het vakgebied MMI in Nederland groeit en bloeit, zowel aan universiteiten, in de kennisinstituten als bij de hogescholen. Ook het bedrijfsleven en overheden zien steeds meer het economische en maatschappelijke belang in van een goede gebruikersinteractie met (nieuwe) producten en diensten. Zeker nu "Technology is becoming more than a dumb tool to enhance human life. Technology nestles in people, between people, has knowledge about people and can step by step act as people." Het vakgebied vertoont echter een grote mate van diversiteit en de betrokken onderzoeksgroepen en bedrijven hebben soms weinig weet van elkaar en van het onderzoek dat elders in Nederland gebeurt. Er bestaat binnen de Nederlandse MMI ‘community’ behoefte tot samenwerking en informatie-uitwisseling. Daarom is een MMI Platform opgericht, een onafhankelijk en representatief gezelschap van personen afkomstig uit bedrijfsleven, universiteiten, hogescholen en onderzoeksinstellingen, dat zal fungeren als een ontmoetingspunt van aanwezige kennis en expertise op het gebied van MMI onderzoek, onderwijs en praktische toepassing.Website: https://mmi-platform.net

Research 1: 3D imaging and printing of Fine Arts.Paintings are near-planar objects with material characteristics that vary widely. The fact that paint has a material presence is often overlooked, mostly because we often encounter these artworks in the form of two-dimensional reproductions. Capturing paintings in the third dimension is not only important for study, restoration and conservation, but it also inspires 3D printing methods, particularly through the high demands it makes on reproducing color, gloss and texture.The scanned topographical map and color data are used to make hardcopy 3D reproductions, using a specially developed printing system. Several paintings by Dutch masters Rembrandt and Van Gogh have been scanned and reproduced using this technique.See: http://www.io.tudelft.nl/onderzoek/delft-design-labs/foundational-labs/3d-fine-art-reproduction/Research 2: Freeform ManufacturingIn this project we use a robotic arm and an off-the-shelf printhead. The key challenge is to generate an adaptive printing strategy, depending on:real-time scanned surface, intended material composition,printhead resolution/width and robot speed/controlSee: http://www.io.tudelft.nl/onderzoek/delft-design-labs/foundational-labs/freeform-manufacturing/

The IOP-MMI programme was focused on the Design, Implementation and Evaluation of Intelligent Systems. User-centered design (UCD) was stimulated as design method in which the needs, wants, and limitations of end users of a product are given extensive attention at each stage of the design process.
