The DIH² Established a Europe wide network of Robotics DIHs to ensure that all the knowledge and technologies developed for robotics in Agile Production over the years become available for exploitation, creating a systematic methodology for rapid commercialization of solutions. Ensuring ‘a working distance’ access to developed knowledge and technologies, along with non-technical services, for every Manufacturing SME in Europe - whichever the sector, wherever the location, whatever the size. The project adopted a Common Open Platform Reference Architecture for Agile Production (COPRA-AP) which follows a modular and inclusive ‘platform of platforms’ vision, fostering the adoption of common system platforms components and engaging in the development of industry-led standards - following a driven-by implementation approach via the Industrial Alliance for Standardization on Agile Production. The project contributed in preparing the workforce for the digital future by fostering training of all the actors involved in the implementation of agile production approaches within the manufacturing domain. It further created a framework to constantly monitor and adequately address the regulatory framework regarding ethics and social issues blocking the innovations and offering new opportunities in Agile Production, including data privacy and protection and cyber-security issues.
