Many assets can only stay out of service for a short time in order to avoid jeopardising operations. Think of a machine for processing food that has a limited shelf life, or a bridge or tunnel. In those situations, extensive on-site test procedures along with the related downtime are not an option. We use Physical Twin to fully rebuild an asset to scale and integrate the control system with the electrical system. This allows us to intensively test various scenarios off-site, detect any errors in a timely manner and minimise disruption. Read more

Cars are slowly turning into computers on wheels, and a car’s quality is determined more and more by its software quality. Each new generation of cars has more features on board than the last, and they depend on each other more heavily. The shift towards fully self-driving cars also increases the software complexity. What does this mean for the software development process and the required quality of the developed software? Ream more
Smart, reliable software solutions are a prerequisite for continued excellence. Crucial to reducing the time-to-market and staying ahead of the competition. To deliver exactly the agreed quantities that meet all set standards and defined (quality) criteria. ICT presents the Centre of Excellence where all knowledge and experience gained from previous projects for high-tech players is concentrated. In addition, we test new technologies in our field lab on the basis of real cases in a conditioned environment. This research does not disrupt your processes and is objective and independent.

In this video our colleague Julien Schmaltz explains our expertise within the Centre of Excellence. Next to that, he goes in-depth on the digital twin technology.
The trends within smart industry demand for reliable and flexible solutions. A huge number of changes are taking place around the operation and control for machine. How can you take these trends into account without increasing the cost price of your machines? After all, in serial manufacturing, using market components is much costlier than developing specific control units for the machine. However, developing a specific control unit requires specialized expertise and equipment. In most cases purchasing a control unit would be more cost-efficient than developing the required knowhow yourself. This is the reason why ICT developed the Machine Control Platform. Read more

Software is driving most of the key breakthroughs in ACES and thus is becoming progressively more important as it increasingly determines the value of a car. Success is no longer determined by the design and the driving style, but also by the time-to-market of new functionalities and by launch excellence of new software-driven features. Read more
Bekijk hier de opname van het webinar Virtual, Augmented & Mixed Reality. Wat zijn de ontwikkelingen en welke mogelijkheden biedt het voor uw bedrijfsprocessen?
Around the year 2010 Model-Based Testing (MBT) was at the top of the hype cycle. It was seen as a must-have. The method could be implemented with relative ease and required only limited investment. Then a range of disillusions followed. It turned out to be more complex than anticipated and the costs often outweighed the benefits. This was the reason for most organisations to stop using MBT. Which is a shame, as experience proves that MBT can definitely contribute to productivity when used in the right situations. What are these situations? And what are important factors to take into account when you are considering applying MBT? Read more

In other words: the technical know-how is there, but it’s not cost-effective. That’s where we come in.’ Read more

The market for electric vehicles is booming. People are attracted by the possibility to use renewable energy to drive their cars in an environmental friendly way. The relatively short distances in the Netherlands are well suited for electric transport; The Netherlands also has an extensive and reliable electricity grid. Therefore, it is not surprising that new models of electric vehicles (EV) are the first to be released in the Netherlands. One of the characteristics of electric vehicles is that they need to be charged regularly. For that reason, GreenFlux is implementing a broad network of charging points. The main challenge is to ensure that drivers can charge their cars in a quick, safe, and cost-effective manner, without overloading the electricity network.

Implementing and configuring an Integration Engine Various information systems within a healthcare organization (Hospital Information System, Laboratory reports, etc.) need to be integrated to optimize efficiency and efficacy and prevent medical mistakes. Currently, inefficiency and inefficacy is caused by the fact that medical care providers need to query multiple standalone systems. The ideal solution is that all systems are seamlessly integrated in such a way that one single comprehensive system is provided to the medical care provider(s). One such integration strategy to manage message flow can be done with an Integration Engine (IE).
