Internship – Digital Innovation

Are you curious creative and eager to see your ideas come to life This is your chance to bridge engineering software and innovation in a global industrial context.

Background

At Seco we dont just make cutting tools were shaping the future of manufacturing. As a global leader in advanced machining solutions we combine cutting-edge tools with digital innovation to transform the industry.

Within our Digital Offer & Innovation organization we explore new concepts and business models that redefine how machining solutions are experienced and delivered to customers globally. This internship puts you at the heart of that transformation working with Virtual Reality (VR) image analysis and AI to create immersive intelligent customer experiences.

Youll work alongside experts shaping the future of industrial manufacturing with the freedom to innovate prototype and test real-world applications that could scale across Sandvik Groups Machining business area.

Project Scope
We aim to make our digital solutions more immersive intelligent and accessible and your overall mission is to explore how these solutions can enhance customer understanding engagement and decision-making in machining.

Your main project will be to develop a VR proof of concept that lets users explore machining environments such as Innovation Hubs tool management setups and production lines in a fully virtual space.

Youll also contribute to a secondary AI initiative focused on image annotation and model improvement for machining-related visual data. This supports our long-term efforts in AI-driven tool recognition and wear analysis.
