AREA 2

Increasing efficiency and quality through algorithmic use of data from digital product development and production are the focus of Area 2, where the new possibilities of digital product development, such as the digital twin, allow solution variants to be systematically modelled and investigated. Area 2 is working on methods for the modelling and calculation of solution spaces as well as on the corresponding methodology for use in everyday engineering. Furthermore, possibilities for the systematic information feedback from the production to the product development based on production data using machine learning are investigated. Using the newly developed methods and methodologies, Area 2 lays the foundation for a new generation of computer-aided product development.
