Surface treatment operations, such as polishing, painting, coating and others, play a critical role in manufacturing quality and product performance. Yet, despite decades of automation in machining, welding, and assembly, these processes remain among the most difficult to automate.

CONVERGING aims to develop, deploy, validate, and promote smart and reconfigurable production systems including multiple autonomous agents (collaborative robots, AGVs, humans) that are able to act in diverse production environments.
The project proposes the development of systems that can:
- Identify and recognize processes/resources/environment and their status
- Analyze the production system status and autonomously formulate a plan of actions using AI
- Automatically modify h/w and control systems to execute the formulated plans
- Seamlessly work with humans or other resources establishing a social industrial environment
- Expand its capabilities and Openness via an Open Pilot Network
The CONVERGING results will be demonstrated in the following sectors:
