INDUPYMES 4.0 PROJECT
The “INDUPYMES 4.0: DIGITAL FACTORY FOR INDUSTRIAL SMEs” project aims to help SMEs in the advanced transportation sectors (automotive, naval, aerospace) and their supply chains, such as machining companies and their complementary sectors, integrate into the new concept of the digital factory or Industry 4.0 paradigm.
All of this is achieved through the development of the digital factory concept for these types of companies, through knowledge transfer and the use of existing R&D&I infrastructure in the regions of Andalusia and Alentejo.
