Online platform Factory5 - saves costs and climate
The online platform Factory5 is designed to help reduce manufacturing costs, shorten manufacturing deadlines and reduce energy consumption in industrial production. The platform also enables partners and users to network.
The online platform Factory5 enables its partners and users to network and communicate directly with each other. However, it includes various processes, such as Micro5, a miniaturized five-axis milling machine that ensures excellent quality while consuming fifty times less energy than conventional equipment due to its size.
The Swiss Climate Foundation co-financed "Series Zero" and thus contributed to an important development phase. Factory5 aims to make manufacturing processes more responsive, efficient and centralized. It also aims to improve the global value chain by providing all industrial competencies (manufacturing, measurement, design, maintenance, etc.) and the necessary management software (MRP, CRM, etc.) and the use of smartmachines.
This optimizes production, increases efficiency and promotes cooperation between companies. The online platform Factory5 unites and coordinates the individual production processes. This concept should soon make it possible to create complete factories and, as the designers would like, make Switzerland "greener, smarter and more connected.
