Rent/Use of facilities

Rent-Use of Facilities -1

Service description

External technology providers and manufacturing companies can rent, utilize, and benchmark specialized testing facilities for industrial AI, robotic automation, and advanced machine vision systems. The service provides plug and play access to calibrated sensor test rigs, robot cells, controlled lighting laboratories, and edge AI compute infrastructure. This enables clients to validate physical prototypes, stress test vision algorithms under real manufacturing conditions, and demonstrate industrial solutions to customers while reducing private testing facility investment costs by up to 50 percent.

Expected results:

Access to professional test facilities for execution of equipment testing or demonstration activities, with optional documented observations, technical feedback, and recommendations for further development or validation. Clients cut physical setup development costs and time by up to 50 percent by using ready certified testbeds, with previous industrial users successfully proving vision guided robotic systems before commercial launch.

Methodology:

The service is delivered as a facility access and test support process including clarification of user needs, booking and preparation of relevant facilities, setup of test or demonstration activities, optional technical support during execution, and delivery of documented observations and recommendations where relevant.

Target:

Manufacturing, Robotics and automation, Machine vision, Biosolutions, Industrial product and process development
