Description
The Technology Centre of Metal-mechanical and Transport (CETEMET) is a non-profit foundation. The centre is managed by a private foundation made up by 20 entities including companies in the metal-mechanical and transport sectors, public bodies, savings banks, universities and business associations. Our mission is to strengthen our role as a technology, smart business and advance infrastructure centre, performing as an accelerator within competitive sectors in the metal-mechanical and transport industries in Andalusia.
CETEMET aims at fostering economic development in Andalusia by means of promoting and improving innovation in companies within the metal-mechanical and transport industries. The centre focuses on promotion and technology development in two core ideas: technology services and R&D&i projects.
The centre has focused on Industry 4.0 for Metal-mechanic and Transport sectors through these 4 technological areas:
- Industrial automation. We use computerized and electro-mechanical components to control machines or industrial processes, greatly increasing the profitability of production process.
- Visual Computing: VR/AR/MxR. Allows you to create immersive virtual environments for experience, train, testing or validate any type of work setting, without the investment cost of a involved reality. The main working lines in CETEMET are focused to its application in the industrial environment.
- Processes control. We have to the latest technological advances that allow us to identify and inspect objects. We implemented the lean methodology for the analysis and control of process improvement quality and costs.
- Process and Product Engineering. Our aims to develop a product that meets with functional and performance requirements of a customer, satisfying also both legal and regulatory requirements applicable to it. We make from the product eased by the customer to meet some certain features to its manufacturing, until obtaining all the necessary information to make the final prototype by 3D printing, machining, etc.
CETEMET is a member of the Linares Scientific-Technological Campus, the Geolit Scientific-Technological Park, the DIH-ITKL, and the Robotics Digital Innovation Hub; and is associated with:
- Spanish Association of Quality
- Spanish Technological Platform of Advanced Manufacturing
- PTFE Rail Technology Platform
- Spanish Association of Welding and Union Technologies
