INPRO Innovationsgesellschaft mbH Berlin

INPRO supports vehicle manufacturers and suppliers with digital planning of production processes. INPRO provides a contribution to advance the vision of the digital factory in vehicle production through innovative data models, methods and concepts.

INPRO is a specialist in the modelling of semantic networks and ontologies in production. In relation to digital planning and production, a major contribution to the integrated information network can be detained.

INPRO uses its long-standing experience with integrated simulations and optimization in production logistics. By using our bionic algorithms and special simulation tools, logistic costs can be reduced without compromising increasing demands on quality and flexibility.

INPRO is recognised for its development of planning tools. When developing software, the graphic user interfaces are also developed and costumized together with users and customers, so that the resulting tools are user-friendly and meet the highest industry standards.

INPRO develops simulation tools for cross-process chain designs of car body, underbody and powertrain manufacturing processes. The main aim is to take into account all key influences and make an early optimization of components possible.

INPRO develops concepts and technologies in order to reduce the use of resources through efficient processes, to increase productivity and to improve environmental life cycle assessment. A significant area of application is the reduction of energy demand for paint shops.

INPRO develops the foundations for process technology, for long-term stability and for the service and repair of bonded joints. The goal is to achieve the introduction of bonding technologies for engines and therefore significantly shorten the process chains and reduce costs in various fields of vehicle production.

INPRO develops measurement technics for the objective determination of appearance to permanently optimize paint appearance. The approaches follow the target of making predictions about subsequent appearance at any stage of production, even before paintwork is applied.

INPRO possesses significant know-how in the field of processing and coating surfaces with plasma technology. Thus, customized modification of suitable materials can be guaranteed for use in vehicle construction.

INPRO develops innovative measurement and evaluation processes to detect defects in components using for example optical, acoustic or thermal sensors. The aim is to support zero-defect production in vehicle manufacturing and to enable non-destructive components testing and process control without time-intensive and error-prone procedure.

INPRO specialises in the optimisation and monitoring of joining processes. By focusing on zero-defect production, vehicles and components can be produced to the highest quality in a cost-efficient manner.

INPRO develops methods to recognise trends toward increasing complexity and dynamics in vehicle manufacturing at an early stage and make statements about possible developments. INPRO is thus able to identify, observe and evaluate global trends in new production technologies and to transfer the resulting ideas and solutions directly into project work.
