The smart software DXQanalyze developed by Dürr has been recognised for its contribution to the future of the industry.
The software products from the DXQanalyze family developed by Dürr have been awarded
with the overall prize Microsoft Intelligent Manufacturing Award for their contributions to the future of industrial innovation. The software also won the Industry 4.0 Innovation Award for the same reason.
The Microsoft Intelligent Manufacturing Award (MIMA), organised by Microsoft Germany and the management consultancy company Roland Berger, honours companies that are providing a valuable contribution to the future of industry through innovative ideas and solutions.
“Winning the Microsoft Intelligent Manufacturing Award not only makes us very proud, but also strengthens us in our vision of a fully digitized paint shop,” stated Dr. Jochen Weyrauch, the CEO of Dürr Systems AG.
The solution DXQanalyze collects available production data and evaluates it in order to develop appropriate actions that will optimise production. Using machine learning, the software can also deduce unknown correlations and patterns and identify in advance potential quality defects in workpieces as well as imminent wear on plant components, allowing operators to act accordingly. In addition, DXQanalyze provides information based on specific systems and uses, enabling for example to forecast the remaining service life of system components or establish links between quality results and machining processes.
“What is impressive about the Dürr solution is the level of maturity already demonstrated by the AI and the forecasting of anomalies. This technological development will permit enormous cost savings. Production plant failures will be reduced as well as material rejects,” commented Prof. Dr. Oliver Niggemann of the Institute of Automation Technology at the Helmut Schmidt University and the University of the German Federal Armed Forces Hamburg, who is a member of the jury.
