TXT is looking for a thesis candidate for a master's thesis project in the field of Industry 4.0 and 5.0 services for companies in the manufacturing sector.
Project title
How to support decisions makers in manufacturing
Background
The main objective of the project is to create a new Industry 4.0 and 5.0 service offering for companies in the manufacturing sector. The services are focused on the management and extraction of value from production data, leveraging the construction of the Digital Twin of the production process, in order to develop services such as quality prediction, production optimisation with minimisation of downtimes, machinery setup/maintenance and energy costs.
The INCREASE Project aims to offer an integrated, modular and complete system based on cutting-edge technologies such as Digital Twin, Artificial Intelligence, Extended Reality (XR) and others to support SMEs (but not only). This system enables manufacturing companies to exploit the benefits of Industry 5.0 services, while avoiding the need to invest significant resources in understanding and managing these technologies before tangible results are achieved. The main aim is also to help companies move towards operating models that are leaner, predictive and able to adapt to change through the use of innovative digital tools and change management strategies focused on simplifying the adoption of new technologies.
Main activities:
Extension of the Digital Twin through the integration of artificial intelligence algorithms in order to extend it through a predictive layer to support operations and decision-making. On the basis of the project use cases, applications for human-machine interaction will then be defined that can support the operator in the decision-making process and collect feedback from the verification process.
Requirements:
Knowledge of system integration principles and Artificial Intelligence;
In-depth knowledge of Java language, Angular (or React) and front-end technologies (Bootstrap and similar);
Knowledge of cloud and microservices architectures;
Knowledge of technical documentation using UML for artefact design and Swagger API for service design.
What you are going to learn:
You will have the opportunity to work on AI models supporting human-computer interaction, which is increasingly important in industrial and (field) adoption contexts of artificial intelligence.
Additional skills:
Good knowledge of English (written and spoken), communication and social skills and problem-solving orientation.
We offer:
Internship opportunity with the possibility of integration into the company and working in an international context;
Flexible working environment with flexible working hours and smart working policies;
Internationality: global presence with offices in Milan, Berlin, Seattle, Dallas, Paris, and collaboration between multicultural teams;
Teamwork: strong orientation towards collaboration, with team building activities and company events.
Location: possibility of on-site work in Cologno Monzese and/or hybrid mode.
