Learning Objectives

The aim of the course is to introduce the tools and methods to be used to design, build and manage intelligent factories according to Industry 4.0 / smart manufacturing paradigms.

Students will understand the links between digital supply chain, product modular design, and computer integrated manufacturing (CIM) architectures inside the different levels of plant management from capacity planning to production operating processes.

But above all, the students must understand the key role of operators in the intelligent factory because the student must learn how design the correct flexibility of experienced human operators for avoiding automating the processes without value added activities or too complexes.
