Remote Additive Manufacturing Control for Uninterrupted Facility Management - (RAM-Ctrl)

**RAM-Ctrl**项目将为添加制造(AM)操作和设施管理开发不可知的远程控制系统和程序。将开发一个本地的、可扩展的中央控制平台(CCP)来管理来自不同机器制造商的多个AM系统。将实施远程控制中心(RCH)来访问CCP并远程管理AM构建。远程命令将从RCH发送，以操纵AM系统并启动构建文件。其目的是提高AM车间的效率和生产率，并使技术人员能够在健康和社会危机(如新冠肺炎)期间实施远程工作(RW)程序。金属医疗演示部件将通过CCP和RCH远程制造。**RAM-Ctrl**项目将实现在不同AM平台上远程传输AM构建文件的高效和安全的过程。预计**RAM-Ctrl**解决方案将缩短生产时间，简化无法在医疗设施本地制造的关键医疗组件的供应链复杂性。此外，**RAM-Ctrl**解决方案将有助于保护整个AM行业的技术工作，使其能够在车间实施RW程序，特别是在需要在工作环境中保持社交距离甚至社交封锁的健康危机期间。此外，建议的解决方案将提高AM车间的生产率和设施管理效率，特别是在这些车间使用不同的AM平台时。

The **RAM-Ctrl** project will develop agnostic, remote-control systems and procedures for Additive Manufacturing (AM) operations and facility management. A local, scalable central control platform (CCP) will be developed to manage multiple AM systems from different machine manufacturers. A remote control hub (RCH) will be implemented to access the CCP and manage AM builds remotely. Remote commands will be delivered from the RCH to manipulate AM systems and launch build files. The aim is to improve efficiency and productivity of AM shop floors and enable technicians to implement Remote Working (RW) procedures during health and societal crises such as the Covid-19 pandemic. A metal medical demo part will be manufactured remotely via CCP and RCH. The **RAM-Ctrl** project will enable efficient and secure procedures for remote transferring of AM build files in different AM platforms. It is expected that the **RAM-Ctrl** solution will shorten production time and simplify supply chain complexities in the manufacture of critical medical components that cannot be manufactured locally at the medical facilities. Furthermore, the **RAM-Ctrl** solution will help protecting technical jobs across the AM industry enabling implementation of RW procedures at the shop floor, especially during health crises that demand social distancing at the work environment or even social lock downs. Also, the proposed solution will improve productivity and facility management efficiency in AM shop floors, especially when these operate with different AM platforms.
