And that means FH JOANNEUM is automatically involved because in 2017, a 600-square-metre laboratory was opened at FH JOANNEUM Kapfenberg, which is constantly being further developed and modernised. It offers students and companies the opportunity to test production technologies in the context of Industry 4.0 and 5.0 (I4.0 and I5.0) and to research the efficient networking of high-tech devices.<\/p>\n\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div id=\"\" class=\"wp-block-text-content margin-bottom-normal\">\n    <div class=\"container-lg\">\n        <div class=\"row\">\n            <div class=\"col\">\n                <h4>Vision<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Create a hub for I4.0 issues in business and science in Upper Styria. <\/li>\n<li>Drive applied research on translating I4.0 building blocks for application by\/in SMEs.<\/li>\n<li>Establish an expertise platform for discussion and testing of new technologies and standards. <\/li>\n<li>Establish and expand a versatile training factory in which tomorrow&rsquo;s skilled employees become qualified to meet the challenges of digitalisation based on hands-on use cases.<\/li>\n<li>Provide further training for managers and professionals in the industry using customised training programmes.<\/li>\n<li>Offer companies, students and interested individuals the opportunity to experience I4.0 from up close.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>One lab &ndash; many options<\/h4>\n<p>Key areas of research being undertaken in the modern Smart Production Lab include networking the entire supply chain, from suppliers and manufacturers through to customers (horizontal integration), as well as IT integration, with the continual flow of data from the shopfloor right through to the business IT systems (vertical integration), see concept map. <\/p>\n<p>The &lsquo;human factor&rsquo; is also a topic in digital production. This involves research into the skills and job profiles of the future, and how assistance systems such as augmented reality can be used to support employees on the shopfloor.
