Digital Integrated and Intelligent Continuous (bio)Manufacturing (DIICBM): An Explosion of Innovation

该项目旨在将两种互补的数字技术整合到连续制造环境中。快速启动项目汇集了一家英国中小企业（感知工程），RTO（CPI，高价值制造弹射器的一部分）和大型企业供应商（Pall Biotech）将一种新型的“数字包装”自动化技术与模型预测控制和规定性维护系统相结合，创造了一种技术和规模独立的智能控制解决方案。作为初步的应用案例研究，该项目将侧重于在高价值生物制药市场中应用这些工具。这个全球市场正在迅速增长，当这种增长率与向更智能化的制造方向发展的紧迫驱动力相结合时，它就非常适合专注于这个改变游戏规则的工作计划。在之前IUK资助的项目中产生的丰富专业知识的基础上，两种数字技术的结合将大大提高英国在连续制造方面的制造能力，在HVMC开放获取中心托管的数字演示器的输出将确保在广泛的部门传播和快速部署，而不仅仅限于生物制造。

This project seeks to integrate two complementary digital technologies within a continuous manufacturing environment. The fast start project brings together a UK SME (Perceptive Engineering), RTO (CPI, part of the High Value Manufacturing Catapult) and large corporate vendor (Pall Biotech) to incorporate a novel "digital wrapper" automation technology with Model Predictive Control & Prescriptive Maintenance system, creating a technology and scale independent intelligent control solution.As an initial application case study, this project will focus on applying the tools within the high value biopharmaceutical market. This global market is rapidly growing, and when this growth rate is combined with a compelling drive to move towards more intelligent manufacturing it becomes perfectly suited for focusing this game changing programme of work.Building on a wealth of expertise generated in previous IUK funded projects, the combination of the two digital technologies will greatly enhance the UK manufacturing capability in continuous manufacturing, and the output of a digital demonstrator hosted at a HVMC open access centre will ensure dissemination and rapid deployment across a breadth of sectors not limited to biological manufacturing.
