Problem Statement

Challenges in contextualization of the enormous amounts of data in a meaningful timeframe in data modeling including gathering of right data; real-time data collection scalability; application of right machine learning tools; interoperability; interactions between edge and cloud; connectivity of smart factory to office; office/factory to cloud; cloud services which connect back with the office; factory and the worker/process engineer.

Project Goal

The goal of this project is to develop technologies on data modeling, machine learning and data-centric analytics for smart Aerospace additive manufacturing and to implement these innovations using data from working Aerospace manufacturing facilities.

Technical Approach

Accelerate the implementation of critical data modeling for machine learning and data-centric analytics into Smart Manufacturing (SM) technologies for aerospace. The project will implement these innovations using data from working Aerospace manufacturing facilities.
