2. Who We Are
European Factories of the Future Research Association (EFFRA)
Industry-led association representing
private side in the ‘Factories of the Future’
Public-Private Partnership with European
Commission
160+ members from across Europe
(growing)
Members include large, small & medium
industrial enterprises, research organisations,
universities, industrial associations and
clusters
Full time secretariat: Connecting with
members, coordinating research agenda &
liaising with the European Union
3. Background
Manufacturing & Europe
How important is manufacturing?
Despite the continued fall-out from crisis,
manufacturing means a lot for Europe:
20 % Direct jobs
67 % Exports
65 % Business R&D Expenditure
Manufacturing in Europe remains
diverse
Importance of manufacturing now
recognised by EU and its member states...
....but also by Europe’s competitors
Realising the potential of 4th industial
revolution needs support = ‘Factories of the
Future’
4. Progress
Factories of the Future PPP
1.150 M€ program within Horizon 2020,
of those 110 m€ for I4MS (ICT for
Manufacturing SMEs) program
200+ projects
1,300+ organisations participating
60% industrial participation
>30% of funding to SMEs
77% of funding to non-EFFRA members
Partnership is addressing all multiple
topics to transform manufacturing (from
CPS to zero-defect factories)
5. Factories of the Future 2020
Strategic Roadmap
One living document covering 2014-2020

14. Factories of the Future 4.0 & Beyond
Factories of the Future PPP
‘Factories of the Future 2020’ is not the end of the
story – EFFRA is preparing complementary agenda to
tackle new challenges
Success of the ‘Factories of the Future’ under Horizon
2020 = Highly likely to continue under next programme
Future of industry (e.g. Industry 4.0) requires
continuation of successful programme
Factories of the Future is already realising the
potential of this next industrial revolution
What might this mean?....
15. Factories of the Future: Industrie 4.0 Germany

16. Factories of the Future: Factories 4.0 - proposal
Innovative SMEs
High-level of customisation & quality
Rapid adaptable production lines
Re-manufacturing
Focused on zero defects
Interconnectivity, communication & data storage via cloud
Factories closer to customers
Energy & resource efficient
Adaptable workplaces for changing
worker demographic
Continous skills improvements:
multi-skilled jobs
18. Our European ambition
Factories 4.0 =
Innovation 4.0 + Industry 4.0 + Economy 4.0
IoT/Big Data/Cyber Security/Cloud/Blockchain
Innovation 4.0: you can’t innovate alone,
you need a networked innovation eco-system – smart specialization of a region
Industry 4.0: automate to lower the costs of manufacturing on the shopfloor
Economy 4.0: create a Digital Marketplace to automate and lower the cost of transactions
Single product manufacturing for the price of mass produced, in town/region in Europa
personal(consumer)/(B2B), series size N=1, zero defect, short delivery, close to customer
new manufacturing paradigm: economy of networking, not scale

Editor's Notes
Factories of the Future is European Research & Innovation Programme.
First some background regarding European Research Programmes
What is EFFRA?
Some general challenges and trends with respect to manufacturing
Examples of projects – Source of inspiration – in a way also can be a benchmark (staying on high level)
Call topics are based upon our priorities – here you can see how each priority leads to a variety of important topics
At the core of industry 4.0 is digitisation
Co-operation is necessary in the face of competition from ‘non-traditional’ actors
The transformation of manufacturing will also change how and even where we produce goods
