POM is EPF Elettrotecnica’s solution dedicated to the automatic packaging of apples. It stands out as a modular and flexible solution, fully integrable into existing lines.
The objective of the POM, GO! project is to bring the POM technology to the highest level of technological maturity, preparing it for commercialization. The completion of the hardware and software architecture will occur through the introduction of innovative artificial intelligence (AI) technologies applied to industrial vision and the use of new technologies for acquiring images in three-dimensional digital format. Thanks to these advanced solutions, all the functionalities required by the apple packaging market will be guaranteed.
POM, GO! achieves its objectives by selecting the optimal tools. Indeed, the search for a development framework and real-time industrial application of AI is crucial today both for the correct use of technologies available on the market and for strategically developing the skills and know-how to gain a competitive advantage in the future market. In general, these developments fit within the increasingly pronounced trend of convergence between the IT (Information Technology) and OT (Operational Technology) worlds in the context of 4.0 technologies.
The POM, GO! project advances the technological maturation of POM and the methodologically structured development of a working framework for present and future challenges.
