DEVELOPING A HIGH-PROFILE MULTIDISCIPLINARY PROJECT

Rebuild a legendary race car using modern eco-design and eco-manufacturing tools

The inter-campus project "Scarabée d'Or, a challenge for young people" showed that by working together, more than fifty students from the Cluny, Angers, and Metz campuses and the Arts et Métiers institute Arts et Métiers Chalon-sur-Saône were able to rebuild an identical replica of the Citroën Scarabée d'Or half-track vehicle. 

Placing students in real-world situations through multidisciplinary and integrated projects is an important component of the CDIO (Conceive, Design, Implement, Operate) standard. It serves to evaluate skills in addition to knowledge. These skills are scientific and technical, but also collaborative (soft skills). 

The novelty of this project consists of:

• to repeat the experience of an inter-campus project by involving all campuses and institutes as well as industrial partners (Les amis de Delage, Bertrandt, Renault, Stellantis, Arcelor, etc.)
• to use modern eco-design and eco-manufacturing tools to faithfully recreate the legendary 1937 Delage V12 Labourdette racing car.

This multidisciplinary, inter-campus project will provide an opportunity to develop remote collaborative engineering, new design and redesign tools, machining methodologies, and more.

This project is also a way for Arts et Métiers its identity and its position as a leader in training eco-responsible engineers in mechanical engineering, energy engineering, and industrial engineering. 

Finally, this project touches on the highly visible world of classic cars, driven by enthusiasts.

How?

After a reverse engineering and design phase that began in 2019, the project has been in the implementation phase for several months now. 

Groups of engineering students from campuses in Bordeaux, Aix-en-Provence, Cluny, Châlons-en-Champagne, Angers, and Metz have been involved in various aspects of the vehicle. 
To date, this represents around 90 students involved, 25,000 hours (students and supervisors) and 5,000 hours for partners.
The year 2024 will be devoted to finalizing the design of the engine block and wooden structure.
The year 2025 will be dedicated to the construction of the engine and the wooden structure.
In 2026, the plan is to assemble the engine, test it on a test bench, and finalize the manufacture of all the peripherals (running gear, transmission, vehicle interior).
In 2027, the bodywork will be finalized and all the vehicle components will be assembled.
The year 2028 will be devoted to ensuring the reliability of the vehicle, with vehicle bench and track testing. Educational materials (calculation instructions, digital models, manufacturing ranges, etc.) will also be created to disseminate and exploit as many elements of the project as possible.

Ultimately, the project will contribute to training approximately 200 additional students by 2028, for a total of around 30,000 hours.

ORGANIZING AGILE PRODUCTION AND EXPERIMENTING WITH AUGMENTED HUMANS

Capturing data to manage flows, integrating concepts of augmented humans

Manufacturers must reconfigure their production lines to meet growing demand for products tailored to a country's culture or a customer's needs (customized/usage-oriented). 

This reconfiguration to be agile and fast must be based on a comprehensive view of the state of the production system and digital simulations in order to identify the optimal scenario. This involves capturing and processing data from the production line. 

This agility will be enhanced by new technologies that assist operators in their work, such as artificial intelligence, augmented reality, and cobotics. 

Arts et Métiers assembly lines, methods, and tools used to learn how to organize a production line and experiment with this organization in order to analyze the differences between theory and practice.

The novelty of this project consists of:

• On the one hand, to capture data at the assembly line and production line levels on the ELF of a campus. This data capture will be used to manage material and parts flows and to adapt the organization of the production line by integrating machines undergoing maintenance. It will also be used to feed models for digital twins.
• On the other hand, to integrate the concepts of human augmentation through cobotics, artificial intelligence, and mixed reality into the production process, with analyses of improvements in operator performance and working conditions.

How?

Each campus has established a multi-year plan to gradually develop real and/or virtual assembly lines on the one hand, and to integrate an ELF-scale production line into industrial management training on the other.  

The campuses in Aix-en-Provence, Bordeaux, Cluny, Lille, and Metz already have an assembly line. The ELF program will help them equip their line with instruments (high-speed cameras, sensors, etc.) and develop the digital twin in 2024 and 2025. 
The Bordeaux and Lille campuses, meanwhile, want to develop disassembly to address the challenges of end-of-life product management and recyclability. 
The Paris campus has a Factory 4.0 platform that provides an initial approach to industrial management on the scale of a small training factory, integrating machining and additive manufacturing resources.
The Châlons-en-Champagne and Angers campuses will develop either real or virtual assembly lines in 2025 and 2026. 

Finally, all campuses are considering rolling out industrial management training across the ELF.

PERFECTING INDUSTRIAL PROCESSES THROUGH DIGITAL TWINS 

Ensuring total control over industrial innovation

The use of digital twins in industry is becoming increasingly widespread, particularly in the design, production, maintenance, and recycling phases. These digital tools are used for the design, adaptation, analysis, prediction, and optimization of processes and the management of industrial activities. They promote the emergence of assistance devices for production and maintenance operations. 

In addition, they play a crucial role in training operators in new processes and practices using immersive and interactive technologies.

This progress is based on four pillars that integrate models and reality:

• digital representation: generally in 3D, it provides an accurate visualization of the object being studied, merging data to create a complete image.
• Integration of physical or data-based models via Artificial Intelligence: this integration makes it possible to realistically simulate the behavior of the digital twin by bringing the model closer to physical reality.
• user interactivity: users interact with models in an immersive environment, bringing the virtual world closer to the real experience.
• Connectivity: ensuring synchronization between the digital twin and the physical twin, this connectivity is adjusted in frequency and precision as needed, reinforcing consistency between the model and reality.

How?

This five-year project, involving all eight campuses, offers remarkable diversity that is unmatched in the academic world in terms of methods and tools for design, production, and quality control. Each campus has developed a multi-year schedule for the gradual development of digital twins corresponding to various real-world components and equipment.
