The project aims to make processing systems more resource-efficient and extend their lifespan. This will be achieved by developing and demonstrating methods based on systematic and digital models. The methods will be used in the Swedish automotive industry to jointly plan, design, and use adaptable and sustainable processing systems for multiple generations of products. The objective is for the project to provide new knowledge, new methods, and best practices and guidelines.
