Print4PAUL

Print4PAUL demonstrates alternative, flexible production possibilities using 3D printing, which become relevant, for example, if parts of a production plant fail. The energy consumption of the orders is monitored and can be predicted for future production orders, which directly fulfills reporting requirements. Print4PAUL thus shows how energy monitoring can accompany and specifically support production.

Shared Economy

Print4PAUL is part of the demonstrator landscape of the technology initiative SmartFactory-KL, which is based at DFKI in Kaiserslautern. In this concept, several production islands at different locations work together via a data room in Kaiserslautern as a skill-based production network (shared production). They take on different roles in the production process and work together to build an individually configurable model truck as an example product.
