Organisation profile

In addition to the education of students at the University of Ljubljana, the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering (FEM) is closely connected to the industrial partners for whom it conducts educational workshops related to the FEM’s R&D operation. FEM has successfully accomplished several industrial projects, some of which also result from student diploma theses. FEM’s laboratory contains a modern production line with six smart assembly stations that can be reconfigured according to the order of assembly processes of products. LPM – LASIM Production Management Software connects all manufacturing process services (from engineering, via supply, warehouse, assembly, and logistics to management) to manual assembly process stations and enables Digital Lean optimised assembly processes.

Field of expertise: products and services essential to value-added benefit

LPM – LASIM Production Management Software connects all manufacturing process services (from engineering, via supply, warehouse, assembly, and logistics to management) to manual assembly process stations and enables Digital Lean optimised assembly processes: assembly material preparation, digital assembly instructions, online and real-time error solving, timing of assembly processes, project status overviews, etc.

The references of the laboratory are state of the art, for example a robot manufacturing company has saved over 40% of foreseen factory floor space thanks to the application of the digital twin approach.
