In the first decades of the 21st century the importance of the economy being up to date with the latest scientific developments – such as Industry 4.0 - is more evident than ever before. Recent global situation has proven that in order for the principles of Industry 4.0 to be successfully implemented, the industry must cooperate closely with universities and authorities. In Poland this cooperation is still insufficient and to solve this problem GDAŃSK TECH teams up with KTH Stockholm, TU Berlin and NTU Athens. The overall objective of the NEPTUN Project is to raise the GDAŃSK TECH level of excellence in the area of additive manufacturing accompanied by cloud computing and control, virtual reality modelling and simulation technology. The project will allow GDAŃSK TECH to become a leading entity in the research and innovation not only on a regional but on a national level, making it an efficient partner in developing Industry 4.0 in Poland. The partners' experience and expertise supported by extensive research and innovation activities in such fields as applying DMLS/SML, SLS and FDM for prototyping with incorporating the process and parameter optimization and control of 3D printed materials for functional use, modelling robotic cells in VR environment or applying evolutionary algorithms in manufacturing process will allow GDAŃSK TECH to expand its expertise and to engage in research, innovation and development activities on a whole new level. An important aspect of the project is a work package connected with exploratory research project in the form of related to advanced additive technologies. Other WPs will boost the development of Industry 4.0 on the regional and national level by forming NEPTUN Cluster of Excellence.
NEPTUN will raise the attractiveness of the profile and research potential of all the partners; it will build a network of scientific contacts aimed at future research projects and publications.
