GTD Presents a Remote Maintenance Demonstrator at BSIF

Technology Collaboration for Complex Industrial Challenges

GTD participated in the Inducience Space of the BSIF, an environment designed to showcase innovative technological capabilities and real industrial demonstrators. Within this framework, GTD presented a remote maintenance demonstrator developed together with the Centre for Automation and Robotics (CAR) of the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM) and Tekniker, a leading applied research and technology centre.

The demonstrator highlighted the effectiveness of public–private collaboration in addressing complex technological challenges in advanced industrial environments. CAR contributed a Universal Robots robotic arm equipped with a tool capable of detecting and tightening a clamp screw, while Tekniker provided a clamp designed for vacuum sealing of pipe sections, representative of real industrial applications.

An Integrated Framework for Remote Operation and Maintenance

GTD contributed its Genrobot + C&C + OMS + VR control suite, which acted as the overall control framework of the system. This platform integrates task planning, supervision and execution, as well as human–machine interaction through virtual environments, demonstrating its potential for maintenance operations in remote, critical or hard-to-access environments.

Throughout the event, the demonstrator was visited by a wide range of institutional bodies and companies, both national and international, enabling knowledge exchange, exploration of synergies and increased visibility of the technological capabilities jointly developed by industry, academia and research centres.

GTD’s participation in BSIF reinforces its positioning in advanced robotics and control systems for complex industrial applications, as well as its commitment to collaborative, technology-driven innovation.
