Driving Automation: ACROBA project Holds General Assembly in Zaragoza

From NUTAI, we are pleased to share updates about the ACROBA Project. On June 26 and 27, 2024, the general assembly of the project partners was held at the facilities of Aitiip Technology Center in Zaragoza, Spain.

During this meeting, the project partners gathered to evaluate the progress of their collaboration. After 3.5 years of working together, it was an opportunity to assess the achievements reached and prepare for the final phases of the project, which will conclude in December 2024. A central focus of the meeting was the five industrial pilots currently being deployed, demonstrating how ACROBA can revolutionize automation in various industrial sectors. These pilots underscore our commitment to innovation and excellence in automation.

Modular Innovation with ACROBA

The ACROBA Project (AI-Driven Cognitive Robotic Platform for Agile Production Environments) aims to develop a cognitive robotic platform based on a modular approach, capable of adapting to any industrial environment through agile manufacturing principles. The platform features a modular and scalable architecture that facilitates the integration of robotic systems with advanced cognitive capabilities, optimizing interaction with cyber-physical systems (CPS) in dynamic production environments.

NUTAI plays a key role in the project, leading the development of use cases with collaborative robotics in strategic processes such as the assembly of electronic components and electric motors.
