Data Format and Data Security

In the evolving landscape of additive manufacturing, a seamless flow of data along the process chain is crucial to avoid information loss and optimize operational efficiency. This ensures precision and consistency in every production phase, securing the repeatability of the manufacturing process. 

 

Our approach

 

  • Secure data exchange: Protection of confidential component data and control of print volumes at the supplier
  • Data consistency: Uniform data model for design, machining, post-processing, and quality assurance
  • End-to-end process control: Design specifications flow directly into production to precisely control production processes
  • Resilience & scalability: Investigation of open formats for high compatibility between platforms and machines

End-to-end data model

With a holistic data infrastructure, manufacturers can reduce operational bottlenecks, improve traceability, and fully leverage the potential of additive manufacturing, enabling faster innovation and higher productivity.

The proposed data model ensures smooth communication across different systems and guarantees that information remains accurate and accessible throughout the entire lifecycle of additive manufacturing.

 

 

End-to-end-process

A holistic view of the manufacturing chain enables the integration of digital solutions and additive manufacturing (AM) to optimize development and production.

Innovative design processes enhance the dimensional accuracy of components through direct communication with manufacturing machines. Collaborative robots facilitate automation, assisting with tasks like machine loading. Customized processes are developed collaboratively to keep manufacturing innovative.

End-to-end data security

Do you want to have your component manufactured externally to test new technologies or produce directly on-site with a partner?

We develop technologies for secure data transmission to the manufacturing machine. Innovative digital solutions allow for necessary information to be transferred layer by layer, without transmitting the entire part geometry, thus protecting your intellectual property.
