The project belongs to the Business R&D Support Aid Program – Hazitek, an action co-financed by the Basque Government and the European Union through the 2021-2027 European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). <\/strong><\/p>\n

ADDHOC’s challenge is to create flexible solutions that improve the connectivity between complex manufacturing processes and their associated means, to investigate the automation of additive manufacturing and to increase knowledge in advanced metallic materials thanks to the application of digitalization and, in particular, of Artificial Intelligence, simulation and vision technologies.<\/strong><\/p>\n

CT, a leading technology company providing innovation and engineering services throughout the product lifecycle, presents the progress of the first year of work on the ADDHOC R&D initiative, a solution for the custom manufacturing of metal parts for applications with high mechanical performance, short manufacturing runs and customized geometries using additive manufacturing technologies.<\/p>\n

Through ADDHOC, CT and its partners in the consortium, seek to facilitate the entry of these mature technologies into manufacturing companies, combining the knowledge gained in previous projects for the development of machines, additive DED processes and materials, with digital development of new software tools. The initiative responds to several technological and market aspects, such as a growing demand for precision and quality of machined parts, increasingly demanding lead and production times, and the much desired reduction of manufacturing costs in medium-high added value processes.<\/p>\n

After a year of research, the participating companies are closer to completing the virtual prototyping process, which makes it possible to simulate and model the manufacturing of components at the software level, by means of the:<\/p>\n
