The i4Q project will be finalized in a couple of days. This is the end of a beautiful journey in the area of industrial data services for quality control in smart manufacturing. After three and a half years of intensive work, fruitful discussions, interesting events, conferences, and meetings, brilliant minds that were all met together to contribute their best to this project. 

Many thanks to all the partners for their efforts and their collaboration ! 

We will meet again on June 10th-11th in Valencia for the final review meeting of the i4Q project! Fingers crossed !

A look back at the I-ESA 2024 conference

During the 12th edition of the I-ESA conference held in Chania, Crete, the i4Q project presented its latest developments as it nears completion. Several speakers showcased their work within the project, along with various related scientific publications.

The i4Q workshop was an intensive event that focused on acquiring AI reliability in industry from a policy perspective, predictive defect detection in end-of-line testing, and transforming quality control in manufacturing. A key highlight was the in-depth exploration of the FACTOR pilot project, demonstrating i4Q solutions in practical applications.

Other topics included advanced quality control in CNC machining, optimizing injection molding through smart process qualification, and using AI for smart manufacturing in the white goods industry. Emphasis was placed on how i4Q technologies manage large volumes of data, enhance decision-making, and improve operational efficiency and product quality.

Dissemination Videos Created by Funding Box

As part of Work Package 7 of the i4Q project, dedicated to dissemination and communication, Funding Box has produced eight videos showcasing the project's six pilots: FACTOR, Whirlpool, Fidia, Farplas, Biesse, and Riastone. Currently, three of these videos have been released on the project's social media platforms, including Twitter, LinkedIn, and YouTube. Once all the videos are published, they will be available in the Resource section of the i4Q website.

These videos highlight each pilot, outlining their production objectives and the challenges they faced in enhancing performance. They also demonstrate the value of i4Q solutions in improving production and addressing these challenges.

Knowledge Biz's Infographics on i4Q Project Pilots

Knowledge Biz has developed six detailed infographics for the six pilots of the i4Q project: FACTOR, Whirlpool, Fidia, Farplas, Biesse, and Riastone. These infographics provide concise summaries of each pilot, including the implementation process, specific needs, and the i4Q solutions tested by each industry partner.

Aimed at industrial professionals, these infographics serve as a valuable resource for understanding the performance and effectiveness of i4Q solutions. They offer clear insights into how different i4Q solutions can improve specific performance indicators, helping industry stakeholders to identify the most suitable technologies for enhancing their operations. By presenting complex data in a visually engaging format, these infographics facilitate better decision-making and knowledge sharing within the industrial community.

i4Q Dictionary

In link with the standardisation strategy of the project and its 22 solutions, the i4Q dictionary has been finalized and is now available on the project website (https://www.i4q-project.eu/dictionary). This dictionary defines the necessary terms to ensure a common understanding and proper application of each solution. The publication of this dictionary as a tool for the use of i4Q solutions will ensure effective communication even after the project's conclusion, thereby contributing to the dissemination of its results.
