ABOUT US

ZDZW develops digital non-destructive inspection (NDI) services as a set of strategic technologies to improve production efficiency, zero-defect, and sustainable manufacturing of European industries. 

To pursue the main goal of reducing defects and the generated waste in manufacturing processes, ZDZW addresses defect minimisation and waste reduction in three key areas that cover the entire manufacturing process and product lifecycle.

Monitoring and control improvement for process quality assurance, where first-time-right manufacturing rate can be increased

Continuous Sustainability evaluation to ensure the efficient use of materials and components across the full production line.

Digitally enhanced rework & repair procedures for necessary part recovery and scrap reduction.

ZDZW will demonstrate its zero-defect (ZD) and zero-waste (ZW) approach in 6 Pilots involving production processes with an important waste reduction potential (injection moulding, thermoforming, welding and painting, induction hardening, lithography and packaging) of key industrial sectors such as automotive, home appliances, renewable energy, e-health, and food and beverages.
