Invitation to the Systems and Control Innovation Lab (SCIL)

Computer-based models have become indispensable for product development in large companies. Many small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), however, are just beginning to digitalise and move into smart product development. The use and performance of modern engineering tools either seems far too abstract or not practical enough.

With this in mind, the DLR Institute of System Dynamics and Control has founded the ‘Systems and Control Innovation Lab’, or SCIL for short. Here, SMEs in particular can gain access to the latest design technologies and software tools for modelling and control of complex mechatronic systems, across the entire spectrum of technical applications. Thanks to the use of model-based methods, SMEs will be able to shape their product developments more efficiently and thus remain competitive in the global marketplace. In addition, the SCIL innovation lab offers its partners individual consultancy sessions in order to select and apply for suitable funding programmes (EU, federal, nation-wide), so as to initiate joint SCIL projects.

On 12 October, the SCIL opens its doors to interested companies, where they will have the opportunity to get to know the research laboratory and the team of experts first hand. As part of the laboratory tours and lectures from industry and research, we will also present the latest design methods and control concepts for mechatronic products.

Target group:
The event is aimed at actors in the fields, such as managers and employees from research and development, production managers, technical managers, designers and managing directors.
