AFM PARTICIPATES IN THE EUSKATE PROJECT

AFM participates in the EUSKATE project – New technologies of interoperability and collaborative coordination based on Blockchain for the collaborative cooperation of the Basque Country’s industries.
The main objective of EusKate is to generate new knowledge based on the use and applicability of the Blockchain technology in industry, and in particular, in Advanced Manufacturing and its contexts of production automation, traceability and energy management, in such a way as to generate new products, processes or services that will lead to a considerable improvement of already existing ones.

It is a consortium led by IZERTIS with the participation, in addition to AFM, of the following companies:  Royde S. Coop., Gashor Equipos de panificación S. Coop., Dominion Digital S.L., Ibermática S.A., Grupo Ionsolar Aer, S.L., Tecnalia, Instituto Ibermática de Innovación (i3B) and Dominion Investigación y Desarrollo.

The participating companies have joined forces to create a Blockchain platform for Industry 4.0 that will allow its members to create prototypes in laboratory or controlled environments, as well as to validate, experiment and analyse new technology-based products and services that can offer them a differentiating value compared with their competitors.
