Digital Twins in Virtual Production

Learn about digital twins and how they can be used in smart production! A digital twin is used to create a virtual model of a real production system. Among other things, it can be used to simulate how the product will be manufactured, how materials flow and how machines move. The course gives you knowledge of industrial digital twins and their application within the framework of smart production. The course is given with flexible start and study pace, but we recommend a study pace of 20%, which means that the course takes about 8 calendar weeks.

Internet of Things Platforms for Manufacturing Industry

Do you want to deepen your knowledge in Industrial Internet of Things? In this course, you will gain deeper knowledge and understanding of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), platforms and cloud services used in manufacturing industries. You will learn to understand the use of IoT platforms and how to design and implement simple systems and how to create value by using IoT solutions within industrial systems. The course will provide you with practical and theoretical knowledge in IIoT, platforms and cloud services as well as in-depth knowledge in production, logistics and product development.

Modelling in Virtual Production

Learn how to improve industrial processes with modelling methods! Modeling is used to create a virtual representation of a real product. With the help of the model, you can study how the product works, test different options and evaluate the product before it is produced in reality. In this course, you gain knowledge on how to design and implement simulation models in the work of analyzing and improving production systems. You will learn how to plan and perform improvement studies, as well as apply the modeling process within the manufacturing industry. The course is given with flexible start and study pace, but we recommend a study pace of 20%, which means that the course takes about 8 calendar weeks.
