    Participants: BEC and AFM
  • 10:10 - 10:30   KEYNOTE OPENING: Políticas e iniciativas en el Cloud – edge – data continuum y su aplicación en la transformación digital de la industria

    Leire Orue-Echevarria Arrieta - Policy Officer - DG CONNECT European Commission

    Cloud y Edge computing son tecnologías habilitadoras para la transformación digital de la industria y están asimismo revolucionando la forma en la forma en la que las empresas gestionan y usan sus datos. La economía del dato se ha convertido actualmente en un pilar fundamental en la industria donde la gestión, captura, almacenamiento, procesamiento y uso de los datos, tanto en arquitecturas centralizadas (cloud) como descentralizadas (Edge) y federadas, es crucial, sobre todo en lo que concierne a la toma de decisiones estratégicas y la innovación. En este contexto, la Comisión Europea ha lanzado varias iniciativas y políticas para fortalecer las infraestructuras digitales y la seguridad de los datos en la Unión Europea. En esta Keynote se hablará sobre el proyecto importante de interés común europeo (IPCEI) en infraestructuras y servicios cloud (IPCEI-CIS), en el que participan más de 100 empresas de 12 Estados Miembros y con una inversión de 2.6 billones de euros, la creación de un middleware inteligente en software abierto para la federación de espacios de datos e infraestructuras, el Data Act que favorece la portabilidad e interoperabilidad entre servicios cloud o el Data Governance Act, que busca crear un marco regulatorio común para el intercambio de datos entre empresas garantizando la seguridad y privacidad de los datos, entre otras, y su aplicación al sector industrial.

  • SESSION 1: Digitalization and smart systems in industry

  • 10:35 - 10:50   LECTURE: AFM CLUSTER/STECH initiatives in the field of AI as applied to advanced manufacturing

    Jon Núñez - Especialista en Tecnología - AFM

    En esta ponencia se presentarán las distintas iniciativas que se están llevando a cabo desde AFM CLUSTER y STECH en el ámbito de la Inteligencia Artificial aplicada a la fabricación. Se presentarán proyectos en los que AFM y STECH están participando y que suponen una oportunidad para las empresas industriales, así como grupos de trabajo que se están dinamizando dentro del clúster.

  • 10:55 - 11:30   DISCUSSION PANEL: Application of AI to the manufacturing industry

    Participants:

    • José Antonio Lorenzo - Data Area Manager - Lantek
    • Nerea Aranguren - Innovation Manager - DanobatGroup

    Moderates:

    • Jon Núñez - AFM

  • 11:30 - 11:55   Coffee Break & Networking

  • 11:55 - 12:10   Success story: Digital Twin of a handling robot and usage of a AI-based controller software to compensate environmental changes in stretch blow molding machines

    Jens Lerche - Senior Application Engineer - MathWorks

    Krones AG, headquartered in Germany, specializes in producing complete production lines for the process, filling, and packaging industry, including handling robots and stretch blow molding machines for PET bottles. The challenge was creating lighter, recycled PET bottles, as minor raw material and environmental changes significantly impacted product quality. Krones developed Contiloop AI, an AI-controlled blow molder, using reinforcement learning to adjust to various inputs and outputs. This innovative solution, combining new hardware and AI software, adapts to changes in materials and conditions, reducing manual adjustments and ensuring consistent bottle quality by monitoring light transmission during production. Contiloop AI efficiently handles rPET, supports lightweight bottle production, and is retrainable for new materials or designs via the Krones IIoT platform.

  • 12:15 - 12:30   Success story: AI for value chain planning, sequencing and synchronisation in the automotive industry

    Borja Iglesias - Managing Director and partner - Kaizen Institute

    Jorge García - Production Systems Manager - Maier

    Maier success story:

    The overall planning of the value chain still features many manual processes, which leads to labour expenditure and decision-making without an overall view of the value chain, and consequently unoptimised resources, high intermediate stocks and low quality of service. Facing this challenge, Maier is looking for a smart factory, by generating automatic line planning and sequencing algorithms, connecting real orders with production constraints, optimising the sequence that maximises efficiency, and synchronising the value chain in real time using pull algorithms and electronic kanbans. Thus, we see a significant reduction in the value chain’s lead, the lead time and service levels are guaranteed, and finally, the efficiency of the equipment is guaranteed.

  • 12:35 - 12:50   Success story: Beyond the data: Cometel and Digitalentu towards Innovation and Scalability

    Álvaro José Zevallos - Founding partner - Digitalentu

    Sandra Montes - Managing director - Cometel

    Explore Cometel's transformation with Digitalentu, from data governance to improve internal efficiency, to the creation of advanced services and digital business models to ensure growth and scalability. In the digital age, where data flow with unprecedented abundance, the real challenge lies not in accumulating data, but in harnessing them strategically. Cometel S.A., a family company and a world leader in the execution of complete projects for the transport, treatment and distribution of industrial waste, was at a critical point in its evolution. Surrounded by data generated by various IT and OT technologies, the key question they faced was: "How can we turn them into our greatest asset for innovation and scalability?"

  • 15:50 - 16:05   Success story: The importance of cybersecurity in international expansion processes

    Asier Riaño - Director of Customer Service and Systems - GHI Hornos Industriales

    Mikel Villar - Cybersecurity Business Unit Manager - Irontec

    As part of its international expansion process, GHI develops innovative products in the field of Industry 4.0, applying Machine Learning and AI techniques. This product has been exceptionally well received in the international market, but faces the problem of responding to the cybersecurity requirements of potential customers who are concerned about the lifecycle of their data.

    After an in-depth analysis and with the help of IRONTEC, the need was determined to carry out a regulatory adaptation of international certification in ISO 27001 which encompasses, on the one hand, the part of procedures in matters of information security, and on the other hand, the effective alignment of the standard with the implemented cybersecurity measures.

    The results of this union translate into greater product visibility in cybersecurity-conscious markets, extra support in the commercial task, reduced entry time into new international markets, and a response to all the protection, confidentiality and traceability needs that the client required, among others.
