In the automotive industry has significantly increased the demand of improve the quality in the final product of steel structural parts in an optimized way in industrial applications. Nevertheless, the present processes do not include an intelligent tooling approach, limiting themselves to using simple tools based on non-real-time systems and without considering a structural complement that enhances its characteristics. In the case of industrial tools, a feature important not taken into in industrial manufacturing processes is the capacity to collect information that allows monitoring the status and performance of the process as well as that of the tool. This thesis presents a proof-of-concept system of an intelligent tool holder with a mechanical structure improved by a combination of manufacturing techniques. In addition, the possibility of being a real-time data acquisition system is proposed, allowing the implementation of a digital twin compatible with commercial systems corroborating the effectiveness of the use of cobots in industrial processes and test the system's ability to collect useful signals during a deburring process.
