Enterprise automation, robotisation and digitisation

Grants for automation, robotisation, and digitisation of enterprises

Implementing solutions related to automation, robotisation, and digitisation of the economy permits streamlining production, minimising losses, improving safety and continuity of processes, and reducing the cost of manufacturing products or individualising them according to the needs of customers. Data subject to further processing are an essential element necessary for decision-making and achieving business advantages.

Growing data availability is encouraging enterprise digital transformation projects. For this reason, the new EU financial perspective provides for a number of instruments designed to finance investments in the automation, robotisation, and digitisation of enterprises.

FENG: Digitisation module under the SMART Path

The Digitisation module is one of the modules under the SMART Path in the FENG programme. It involves aid for funding ventures in the field of e.g. robotisation of production lines, data analytics and production optimisation, cybersecurity or IoT solutions. Both SMEs and large enterprises can apply for funding.

The condition necessary for using the support under the Digitisation module involves including the R&D Works module or, alternatively, the Implementing Innovations module (for SMEs) in the project.

National Recovery Plan

Investments supporting enterprise robotisation and innovation

Funding will only be directed only to large enterprises and will be available for projects involving the implementation of smart production lines, construction of smart factories, digitisation of business processes (management, operational, support) and of other activities, e.g. with respect to supply chains or provided services, as well as the use of cloud technologies.

The programme’s estimated total budget is EUR 450m.

"SME automation and robotisation in Eastern Poland" Programme

The programme is addressed to SMEs operating in Eastern Poland.

Funding will cover two project stages:

Stage 1: Conducting a technology audit of the enterprise to identify production, service or business processes that may be automated/robotised as well as developing a strategy for implementing the automation/robotisation process and growing the enterprise on that basis (roadmap)
Stage 2: Implementing measures arising from the roadmap in the enterprise. Funding will be available in particular for the acquisition of machines, robots and other machinery and equipment, software, and consulting and training services necessary to install and operate the aforementioned equipment.

Case studies

Optimising production in the automotive industry

We obtained funding for an automotive company to develop equipment streamlining the component manufacturing process. R&D works related to developing the device were performed in line with Industry 4.0 assumptions. As a result of the R&D works performed, the component manufacturing process was significantly automated. Eligible costs amounted to PLN 5.5 million and the funding reached nearly PLN 2.5 million.

Autonomous transportation system based on mobile robots

We secured funding for a smart robot manufacturer to develop an autonomous transportation system based on mobile robots as well as planning and control algorithms with learning capabilities. Ultimately, the system will be applied in production processes and non-linear internal warehouse logistics processes. The eligible costs of R&D works amounted to PLN 8 million and the funding reached PLN 5.2 million.

A smart system for measuring and controlling the manufacturing process quality

We secured funding for a leading manufacturer of ceramic tiles for R&D works involving developing a system for measuring and controlling the quality of the production process. The system will be based on proprietary predictive algorithms. The system will help improve the efficiency of the basic elements of the process line. The eligible costs of the project amounted to PLN 10 million and the secured funding reached PLN 4.1 million.
