BARCELONA, Spain, July 8, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- CloudiFacturing is a project that is part of the Factories of the Future initiative (EFFRA) within the framework of the I4MS program (ICT Innovation for Manufacturing SMEs) and with the support of the European Union 2020 Research and Innovation Program.

Launches its second Open Call for the application of experiments in the area of Production Engineering for Digital Predictive Manufacturing.

This second call seeks innovative use cases in the sector that have a clear industrial impact depending on the benefits expected from the exploitation of computer engineering and production services and workflows powered by CloudiFacturing technology. SMEs or manufacturing companies (end users) interested in the application of experiments involving this technology can submit their applications from July 1 to September 30, 2019.

To apply, you must present experiments that simulate manufacturing processes or elements thereof, as well as optimization in manufacturing processes. The case studies will have to be oriented to the end user (e.g. manufacturing industries - particularly small and medium enterprises). The proposed case studies are expected to involve small consortiums, end users of manufacturing industries, independent software suppliers, engineering consultants, research organizations, suppliers of HPC (High Performance Computing) and DIH (Digital Innovation Hubs).

It is expected that the average funding for experiment will be of 100 thousand euros with a maximum of 60 thousand euros for individual members. More information will be published on the CloudiFacturing website.

About I4MS

I4MS (ICT Innovation for Manufacturing SMEs) is an European initiative that supports manufacturing SMEs and mid-caps in the use of the spread of information and communication technologies (ICT) in their business operations. Through I4MS, SMEs can request technological and financial support to carry out small experiments that allow them to test digital innovations through open calls.
