TU Delft manufacturing automation expertise centre
We bring innovative organisations together with technology suppliers and TU Delft researchers
SAM XL is a manufacturing automation expertise centre that forms a unique liaison between TU Delft faculties, the industry and suppliers. We develop software and hardware to enhance the intelligence, connectivity and flexibility of industrial robots. This robot technology for executing complex and varied tasks on large structures is validated and demonstrated in our industrial-scale automation lab. We also provide hands-on training for students and staff from our industry and research partners, to uplift their digital skills in executing automation projects.
ABOUT
Automation is key to keep up in the competitive industry.
Off-the-shelf automation technology tends to fall short with regards to technical or economic aspects. Setting up an automated production line currently still requires a substantial amount of time, money and effort.
Where should you start? Can you do this alone? What equipment do you need? How do you level up your knowledge? How important is the role of software development?
