The manufacturing sector is currently experiencing a profound transformation known as the fourth industrial revolution, commonly denoted as Industry 4.0. Moving from centralized to decentralized production models, we encounter distinct prospects for advancement facilitated by open technologies and innovative practices.
Our program acquaints participants with the Tolocar project, aimed at fostering the development of distributed manufacturing. It encompasses a comprehensive overview of potential advancements, machine replication, and open innovation, and delineates the pivotal role of CDTOs as leaders within their ecosystems.
The participants will be acquainted with the digital innovations and the Digital Product Passport (DPP) on FabCity OS — the project that is developing in collaboration of met a lab and Promprylad.
The program also includes practical work involving open design and documentation on the Ostriv platform. This entails tasks such as searching for and adapting 3D designs to facilitate the creation of physical objects.
The Tolocar project embodies the idea of mobile makerspaces furnished with open-source tools, equipment, and requisite materials. Tolocar facilitates immediate access to modern technologies directly on-site.
