IMAF aims to put people at the heart of the manufacturing production process, by focusing on human-machine collaboration and autonomous decision-making systems for tasks requiring creativity and complex, rapid decision-making.

The Labex will focus on five challenges: manufacturing as a service; agile robotics; digital twins; human factors; and metal, composite and chemical processes.

The CEISAM Laboratory is involved in 3 NEXT-funded LABEX projects.

The NEXT Labexes are interdisciplinary research projects that will provide a structure for the Nantes region, and which aim to strengthen the excellence and influence of research in the two areas covered by the NEXT I-site: health and the industry of the future.

These Labexes will contribute to meeting major societal challenges by drawing on the dynamism and high-level expertise of Nantes' laboratories and research teams.
