The Korea-German Intelligent Manufacturing System Laboratory (IMSL) aims to establish an intelligent manufacturing system that can predict and diagnose manufacturing system information. Seoul National University and Fraunhofer IPT/Aachen University in Germany are working together to develop the integrated digital twin model applicable to the manufacturing site and demonstrate it with manufacturing equipment. Digital twin platforms and manufacturing digital twin element technologies such as smart sensors, IoT systems, PHM (prognostics and health management), and autonomous decision-making systems are being developed to derive creative results in their respective academic fields and industry.

The ‘Safe Smart Factory’ technology is a method for developing specialized technologies for factory safety using appropriate smart manufacturing technologies for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs). Smart sensors, smart communication, and analysis algorithms with less financial and technical burdens in deployment have been used in the development. In the first stage, the applicability of the ‘Safe Smart Factory’ technologies for SMEs has been confirmed by applying vision, power, temperature, and environmental monitoring sensors according to various industrial safety issues.
