ESPADIN (ESPAcios de Datos para la INdustria) is a research project conceived with the purpose of advancing the deployment of 4.0 technologies by creating an industrial data space that can be shared within a framework of interoperability, governance and data security/reliability. A multidisciplinary approach that seeks to lay the foundations for more efficient and secure industrial development in the context of the growing demand for data interconnection in systems in the industrial field.

It is part of the Science and Innovation Missions Program of the CDTI (CENTER FOR TECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT AND INNOVATION), included in the National Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan and will receive financing from the “Next Generation EU” funds in 2022.

The project will last 28 months, with a total approved budget of €4,373,176 and aid granted of €2,620,880.

The evolution towards Industry 4.0 (and 5.0) is based on digitization processes and construction of data flows, where the different agents of the value chain share sensitive information, guaranteeing the sovereignty of the data of each entity, the availability of data, sometimes in real time, as well as the security of the data when leaving the entity's environment for exchange with others.

ESPADIN's purpose is to implement the exchange and exploitation of these data in industrial practice under the concept of shared data spaces, which must ensure the quality, availability, and reliability of the information.

The general objectives of the project are based on three research pillars:

• Data quality.

• Data availability.

• Data reliability.

ESPADIN will establish a data space that guarantees the aforementioned objectives, following the guidelines of Gaia-X and IDS, using EDGE and CLOUD technology, as well as distributed management through blockchain. Likewise, the project contemplates the demonstration of its applicability through three use cases:

  • Repsol: traceability of green hydrogen.
  • Antolin: production of plastic parts for vehicles.
  • FCC: monitoring of industrial processes.

Rol de Antolin´s role

In Antolin´s industrial role, the demonstrator project is part of a process of plastic parts injection, as well as assembly and shipping to the customer.

ESPADIN will allow the exploration of fundamental data technologies for the digitalization of industrial processes at the three fundamental levels EDGE, FOG and CLOUD, being able to lay the foundations for Digital Twin and exploitation of Artificial Intelligence on an industrial scale.

​National project in cooperation with:

Public research organizations:

ITCL works with Antolin, providing knowledge in cloud and hybrid architectures that allow the management of large amounts of data in the industrial environment with real-time processing capacity for quick and agile decision-making. Additionally, ITCL will work on the network connections of own clouds, legacy infrastructure, and public clouds so that they are connected to each other and ensure that the hybrid cloud implementation works, evaluating the quality. It will investigate the mechanisms necessary for the unified management of these clouds.

The project has been founded by the MISSIONS Call of the CDTI:
