Description

The Omnifactory® demonstrator at the University of Nottingham is a unique research facility in the UK, not just for its physical components, but also for its cutting-edge connected digital infrastructure. This provides the opportunity to investigate the challenges associated with the increasingly interconnected nature of the modern manufacturing industry. This is addressed through two main strands: how to ensure a connected digital manufacturing system is secure without impacting functionality; and how to interconnect multiple factory sites to enable new functionality.
