DiManD

DiManD Innovative Training Network (ITN) is an European Trainning Network (ETN) programme that will provide a high-quality multidisciplinary, multi-professional and cross-sectorial research and training of high-achieving early stage researchers in the area of Industry 4.0

The economic prosperity of Europe will increasingly depend on maintaining and further expanding a resilient and sustainable manufacturing sector based on sophisticated technologies, relevant knowledge and skill bases, and manufacturing infrastructure that has the ability to produce a high variety of complex products faster, more reliably and cheaper. In high labour cost economies, manufacturing competitiveness depends on maximising the utilisation of all available resources, empowering human intelligence and creativity, and capturing and capitalising on available information and knowledge for the total product lifecycle from design, through production, use and maintenance to recycling.

Programme vision

A strategy for designing and developing integrated systems to overcome these barriers along with the suitable training is required to produce experts with a multidisciplinary skill set that will be able to create a new generation of solutions that embody the ethos of the Industrie 4.0 era and the ability to adapt current solutions to this new way of producing complex high value products.
