TFOOD

Location: Patras (Greece)

Food loss reduction and supply chain efficiency are the focus of this digital testbed for the primary sector. A teaching factory builds the bridge between academia and industry and creates a basis for new synergy models.

The consortium, consisting of partners from the milk processing industry, is working on a robotics-based demonstrator for food processing, applying autonomous pick-and-place operations to package small production batches.

Furthermore, the testbed consists of digitised milk cooling tanks, which allows continuous monitoring. This results in better awareness of critical parameters for raw milk and less food loss. 

Testbed main goals

• 10% less food loss in the primary sector
• 5% less manufacturing lead times
• 1 established and operating teaching factory
