Flex4
Modular Building Services Engineering as the basis for optimized engineering processes in automation and asset management
The Flex4 research project is developing hydraulically and structurally standardized modules for HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning), WFI (water for injection) and wastewater. In addition to process modularization, the digital twins of the modules are also being developed in terms of process control, asset management and quality assurance for automation. The aim is to optimize engineering workflows over the life cycle of the modules. In particular, significantly reduced planning and commissioning times and an increase in the quality of modular automation solutions in the pharmaceutical industry are expected.
