Scientific/research and project work

Work on different research projects mainly focused on industry implementation. The main topics are:
  • 2D and 3D simulation of manufacturing processes
  • Logistics in manufacturing systems and processes
  • Robotic simulation and implementation
  • Advanced grippers in automation
  • Robotic simulation and implementation
  • Integration of digital twins to manufacturing process with connections to informational systems
  • Manufacturing layout optimisation
  • Automatization of manufacturing processes in manufacturing systems
  • Identification and tracking in manufacturing systems
  • Automation of parts orienting and feeding

Work on several R&D domestic and international projects in the field of basic, applied / developmental and especially industrial research in Slovenia, Austria, Serbia. He is active mainly in the fields of development of advanced simulation models of the production process within the scope of project tasks for industry.

 
 

Research fields
