fischertechnik Agile Production Simulation (APS) Webinar

Tuesday, April 29th, 3 PM - 4 PM Eastern

Meet the Agile Production Simulation (APS), the latest simulation model designed to demonstrate modern production and logistics challenges. The APS model incorporates cutting-edge technologies, including IoT, AI, and automation, to replicate agile manufacturing processes. The webinar explores the evolution from traditional assembly lines to flexible, modular, and automated production methods, highlighting real-world industry examples like BMW. Key features of the APS model, such as the automated guided vehicle (AGV), six-axis robot, quality control with AI, and the digital learning platform, are discussed in detail. The presentation underscores the educational value of APS, making it an ideal tool for higher education, vocational training, and industrial research.

Key Topics:

• Agile Production & Industry Challenges: The transition from traditional assembly lines to flexible manufacturing models.
• APS Model Features: Includes AGV, high-bay warehouse, drilling and milling stations, AI-based quality control, and more.
• Digital Learning Platform: An interactive tool providing education on agile manufacturing, IoT, AI, and automation.
• Real-World Applications: Example of BMW’s manufacturing challenges and the role of agile production in modern industry.
• Add-On Modules: Expansion options such as the Annealing Furnace and additional AGVs for enhanced functionality.

Demonstrate the Factory of the Future

The Agile Production Simulation (APS) 24V, a modular training system powered by Siemens S7-1200 PLCs. APS bridges the gap between theory and application, preparing learners for Industry 4.0 and beyond.

Hands-on Innovation for Automation & Control:

• Modular Production: Understand automated processes.
• AI-Driven Quality Assurance: Witness artificial intelligence in action.
• Digital Twin: Optimize efficiency with virtual models.
• Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs): Study autonomous transport systems in action.

Manufacturing Training and Education

The Agile Production Simulation serves as a bridge between theory and practice, making it an invaluable tool for universities, vocational training centers, and corporate learning environments. Learners will:

• Develop future-ready skills in automation, robotics, and AI-driven manufacturing.
• Understand Industry 4.0 principles through real-world simulations
• Gain hands-on experience with industrial control systems
• Simulate complex manufacturing processes without the need for a full-scale production facility.

As the industry transitions to intelligent, agile, and connected factories, professionals who can navigate these technologies will be in high demand. The Agile Production Simulation ensures today’s learners are equipped to become tomorrow’s industry leaders.
