Case Western Reserve, partners with CESMII to launch Smart Manufacturing Innovation Center
Case Western Reserve University and several partners are launching a new center focused on helping small- and medium-sized manufacturers (SMMs) adopt “smart manufacturing” technologies.
The new Smart Manufacturing Innovation Center (SMIC), one of four in the country, officially opens today (March 30). The university developed the center in partnership with CESMII, the United States’ national institute on Smart Manufacturing, and received support from the U.S. Department of Energy and other key partners.
“Northeast Ohio small- and medium-sized manufacturers can now quickly become more competitive by accessing the national expertise, tools, and training we and our partners can offer,” said Nick Barendt, the new center’s director and executive director of the Institute for Smart, Secure and Connected Systems (ISSACS) at Case Western Reserve. “This is another step in a process in making smart manufacturing available to thousands of them.”
