Industrial Technologies Challenges for European RTD Claude Rieg New Generation of Products DG Research European Commission
Outline • Some key figures on ERA • Challenges for Manufacturing • Manufacturing research in NMP • What is ahead? • Summary
EU assets in Reseach • The EU is still the largest producer of scientific publications • The EU has a growing pool of researchers • The EU is increasingly attractive for foreign research investments
Dynamic context Rapid technology renewal, Sustainability Requirements,Public acceptance,Globalisation,Financial crisis,… …a continuous wave of change!
Dynamic context Transformation of industry Governing the change
Objective:To improve the competitiveness of EU industry and ensure its transformationvia: the effective transition from a resource-based to knowledge-based industry generation of new breakthrough knowledge strengthening EU leadership in nano, materials and production technologies emphasis on integration of different technologies and disciplines across many industrial sectors Technology Platforms help establish priorities FP7 NMP

Holistic approach to Knowledge Based Factories EC budget (M€) in NMP FP7 (2007-2008)
Production (Manufacturing) per theme EC budget distribution in NMP FP7 (2007-2008) and FP6 Calls (35 % in FP6) (31 % in FP6) (34 % in FP6)
Production (Manufacturing) per organisation type EC budget distribution in NMP FP7 (2007-2008) and FP6 Calls (25 % in FP6) (28 % in FP6) (31 % in FP6)
Adopted by the EC on 26 Nov 2008 and endorsed by the EU Council on 11-12 Dec 2008 Includes ‘smart investment’ in research ‘To support innovation in the manufacturing, construction and automotive sectors, which have recently seen demand plummet as a result of the crisis and which also face significant challenges in the transition to the green economy…’ Three Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) Objective: to promote the convergence of public interest with industrial commitment and leadership in determining strategic research activities Recovery Plan Research activities
Public-Private Partnerships Research activities • 3PPPs on research activities with committed budget over 4 years (50% EC funding): “Factories of the future” initiative - Total costs: € 1.2 billion “Energy-Efficient Buildings” initiative - Total costs: € 1 billion “Green Cars” initiative - Total costs: € 1 billion • Involvement of industry in planning and implementation • Quick response implies use of existing instruments 7th Framwork Programme SRA developed by industry in the ETP • Implementation approach: In 2009, cross-thematic calls under FP7 In parallel exploration of further calls and other options for longuer term, e.g. Joint Technology Inititiatives
Manufacturing is the driving force in the EU’s economy, with 21% of GDP and 20% of all jobs Manufacturing has a big environmental impact, with 28% of energy consumption and 33% of overal waste 25 industrial sectors, dominated by SMEs Objective: Developing enabling technologies to support EU manufacturing across many sectors, to adapt to global competitive pressures by boosting their technological base “Factories of the future” Challenges
“Factories of the future” Expected results • Sustainable Manufacturing: Quiet, clean and safe green production machines • Intelligent Manufacturing: Intelligent machines capable of interacting with operators, self-monitoring and self-correct smart production lines • High performance manufacturing: Towards zero-defects, lean and adaptive manufacturing processes • Manufacturing processes handling new materials: Light-weight/high-functionality using new materials and micro/nano manufacturing (‘portable factory’)
“Factories of the future” Product-Services made and used in Europe High Value Adding Manufacturing Industries The FACTORY of the FUTURE in EUROPE: Worker-friendly, customer oriented Sustainably competitive Competitively sustainable Life cycle oriented Networking manufacturing Integrated Knowledge Intelligent Adaptive Systems, …
