The QRM production strategy ensures that companies in a high-mix-low-volume environment are able to shorten their lead times and save indirect costs. To make the strategy better known in Belgium, Sirris is organising QRM Silver training multiple times a year. Anyone successfully completing the ...

How can the mechanical and metallurgical industries contribute with solutions, materials and process sciences to carbon neutrality and energy cost reduction in heat treatment'? This is the focus of the symposium, organised by VWT and A3TS in Antwerp on 11 May 2023.

Over the years, various calculation models have been developed that allow machining processes to be analysed and even optimised. These calculation models can be run on the online platform modelgebaseerdbewerken.be by means of simple forms. In a series of blog posts, we explain how you can use this ...

Machining processes are the most common ways to produce a component or a part by removing excess material from a block of material. The quality of the part depends on how stable the process is. The stability here has two components: one involving the physical machine-tool system and the other ...

To pass on the knowledge and expertise built up during the Interreg project BHC21 to companies so that it can be exploited, Sirris has built a demonstrator cell that shows the benefits of digital operator support. This was presented during the Open Lab Day on 8 March. A look back.

For manufacturing industry, Industry 4.0’s answer to today's challenges lies in adaptive processing. The successful application of this depends critically on having both correct (real-time) data and the corresponding structured and digitised working methods. With the start of our model-based ...

From March to October 2022, we conducted a survey with manufacturing companies from Belgium and Germany, within the context of the research project Cybersecurity4.0. You can find some interesting results and tendencies from the survey in this blog post.

Cutting forces play a critical role in milling processes. In this second article we dig deeper in the estimation and optimization of these cutting forces.
