Intelligent connected industry – secure & reliable data exchange
Manufacturing - X:
The future of industrial data rooms
Whether you want to test secure data access in a virtual data room or practical use cases in an industrial pop-up test bed, Smart Systems Hub offers you the right infrastructure and technical and technological expertise to get you started in Manufacturing-X.

Initiative for digitalisation of supply chains in industry
Connected data rooms for a smart future
A sovereign data room for the entire industry is being created under the name Manufacturing-X. Unlike the analog hall, this is not located in one place, but is available wherever there is Internet access. This means that many companies - from SMEs to corporations - can exchange data securely and confidentially along value chains in an open and decentralized data room without relinquishing control.
Your advantages at a glance:
✔︎ Increase process efficiency within your company
✔︎ Establish new data-based business models
✔︎ Exchange data securely and confidently across the entire supply chain
Necessity
Use cases such as just-in-time production, the Supply Chain Act and product recalls create a demand for information along the entire supply chain.

Popup Testbed
The Smart Systems Hub pop-up test is a mobile testbed that uses real use cases to demonstrate the added value of the data room landscape.
The Testbed is a physical environment to showcase a specific Manufacturing-X use case to the public.

Each wooden box contains a different asset, such as:
a Fischtechnik model factory (simulating a real-life factory in miniature format)
a Cobot
a 3D printer
Software applications
These assets exchange data, which can be made visible via the popup testbed. It can be easily transported to events. If a different use case needs to be showcased, components can be swapped out or modified.
Companies can co-develop a box with us. For example, the Fischertechnik model was built with multiple HUB partners.
Share data confidently and securely in modern data rooms
Manufacturing-X Explore&Learn Environment
Our goal is to reduce complexity. With the experimental field, companies do not have to deal with data exchange formats, authentication, and authorization processes; we provide these components ready-to-use. Each participant can use identities and wallets, and connectors are also provided that are used exclusively for their own use case.
This allows us to focus fully on integration applications for business value.
Your advantages:
✔︎ You gain complete control over your virtual data room.
✔︎ You retain absolute data sovereignty with maximum data security.
✔︎ Learn and explore environment for joint innovation.
