Campodarsego, February 26, 2024 - The Carraro Group, world leader in the production of transmissions for off-highway vehicles and specialised tractors, has started in recent years a profound digital transformation of its production and management processes, with the aim of progressively eliminating the inefficiencies of an analogic information management system and exploiting the potential offered by the IT infrastructure.
Within this path, and in the perspective of taking a step forward in this direction, the Group has activated a collaboration with SMACT ( www.smact.cc ) - a competence centre and innovation ecosystem with a high specialisation in the Triveneto area - which has allowed to finance and start two innovation projects, industrial research and experimental development, now activated in collaboration with Ca' Foscari University (Venice).
Enrico Carraro, Chairman of the Group, commented:"Within our digital transformation path, we decided to focus on the processes, accelerating the evolutionary path in progress. For this reason we joined SMACT, a centre of excellence in the field of 4.0 innovation. We are very satisfied with the first steps we are taking and we intend to continue in this direction".
More in detail, the two projects, both based on artificial intelligence, are:
These two projects represent an important step in the digital transformation path of the Group, which today also relies on artificial intelligence to delegate to technology the activities with lower added value, focusing on continuous improvement in the quality and efficiency of processes, products and services within a global context that is increasingly dynamic and complex.
At the same time as this, a process of technological awareness (and training) was launched within the Group with a specific focus on artificial intelligence, involving management at the forefront (which has already had the opportunity to participate in the first stage organized by Ca' Foscari in days in Campodarsego) as well as the Digital Enablers present in any company area, key figures to guarantee the adequate dissemination of a new digital culture.
