SUPERVISING PRODUCTION SYSTEMS AND MANAGING RESOURCES AT THE FACTORY LEVEL
Integrate new cells, collect data
To remain competitive while addressing the challenges of decarbonization, sustainable development, and social responsibility, manufacturers are developing information systems that provide real-time access to and sharing of data related to their production processes. This enables them to improve productivity by optimizing production systems and processes, reducing energy consumption and waste, and preventing machine breakdowns.
Arts et Métiers technology platformsArts et Métiers design, manufacturing, control, sustainability, and maintenance units, but without complete links across the production chain and/or product life cycle.
The novelty of this project consists of:
- on the one hand, to integrate new units such as the warehouse unit and the waste/end-of-life management unit for products and online documentary resources.
- On the other hand, collecting data on each cell, setting up an organized archiving system to reuse the data, particularly remotely, and integrating it into a common information system to supervise the ELF in terms of its machine fleet, production systems, energy consumption, and environmental impact for better management.
How?
In 2023, the Bordeaux campus developed a connected cabinet demonstrator.
This concept will be developed on the Angers and Lille campuses in 2024. In 2025, it will be the turn of the Cluny and Châlons-en-Champagne campuses, followed by the Paris and Metz campuses in 2026.
Similarly, ELF's online documentary resources will be rolled out across campuses, starting with Angers and Metz in 2024.
The implementation of an organized data archiving system for reuse by any campus and integration into a secure information system is the subject of a demonstration involving the Angers, Cluny, and Metz campuses.
In 2024, 2025, and 2026, the other campuses will be integrated. Energy consumption measures will also be rolled out across all campuses following an initial demonstration on the Lille campus in 2023.

DETAILS
Logistics 4.0
Following an initial trial on the Bordeaux campus, this project aims to equip all campuses with hardware and software for managing the flow of materials, parts, and equipment. The challenge is to strengthen teaching across the entire logistics chain, from suppliers to end customers.
