Airbus and two food and drink businesses in Wales have collaborated with AMRC Cymru to take part in a new R&D project on how manufacturers can increase productivity while meeting net zero targets.
The project, called Ffatri 4.0, hopes to prove that both sustainability and productivity targets in manufacturing can be reached through digital manufacturing smart technologies.
Lessons learnt from the project will be shared across the Welsh manufacturing sector and, if successful, a blueprint will be created for future factories to follow, while increasing the capacity for collaborative research with industry and R&D investment in Wales.
