SHINE-Q is the project for the development of an innovative “machine as a service” solution for the sharing of 100% automatic inspection & sorting equipments for fasteners to all those companies that need to improve the capacity of their production departments.  

Born from the collaboration between Dimac and CommIT World, SHINE-Q is co-financed by the Piedmont Region through the announcement PASS – Programs for Access to qualified Services in support of innovation and the implementation of feasibility Studies prior to industrial research activities.

SHINE-Q – acronym of “SHaring Inspection NEtwork Quality”- fits into the logic of Industry 4.0 in a perspective of sharing-economy. With the servitization, SHINE-Q aims to transform the business model by integrating a product service system instead of purchasing new production equipment. The product service would be accessible through a cloud ICT infrastructure for the remote management of the activity, ensuring certainty and measurability with respect to control performance, reliability and cost.
