Dr. Tero Frondelius – Wärtsilä
Wärtsilä and ENGINE: Driving Zero-Defect Manufacturing for a sustainable future
At the forefront of simulation-driven engineering and sustainable industrial transformation, Dr. Tero Frondelius, Senior Manager, Research and Method Development at Wärtsilä, will unveil the company’s pivotal role in the ENGINE project at the 4ZDM Cluster Digital Manufacturing Industrial Workshop.
With extensive experience in four-stroke engine development, structural analysis, and quality-driven R&D, Dr. Frondelius will present how Wärtsilä is pioneering first-time-right, zero-defect manufacturing (ZDM) systems – starting with the marine engine supply chain.
His presentation, “Wärtsilä’s Role in ENGINE: Advancing Zero-Defect Manufacturing for a sustainable future,” will explore:
Identifying and eliminating defects across the manufacturing chain to improve product reliability.
Enhancing defect detection and tracing methodologies for higher quality assurance.
Developing AI-driven diagnostic tools and non-destructive testing techniques to optimise manufacturing.
Breaking silos between R&D and manufacturing to foster data-driven workflows.
Reducing waste, cutting costs, and improving efficiency in marine and powerplant engines
By leveraging advanced modelling toolboxes, AI-integrated analysis, and sustainable design strategies, Wärtsilä’s work in ENGINE is set to redefine industrial efficiency and sustainability in heavy manufacturing.
Join us in Brussels on the 26th of March to gain exclusive insights into Wärtsilä’s innovative quality control approach—and discover how zero-defect manufacturing is shaping the next era of green industrial transition.
