Robust, and FLEXible CAST iron manufacturing (FLEXICAST)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2016,

The FLEXICAST project presents knowledge-based technologies that aim to follow the way to transform the conventional (batch-by-batch) foundry process into a flexible (mold-by-mold) process. The proposal technologies will be applicable not only to new cast iron foundry lines, but also is readily available to be retro-fitted to existing plants. The specific objectives are:a)A cast iron production ce ...

MUlti-layers control&cognitive System to drive metal and plastic production line for Injected Components (MUSIC)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Aug 31, 2016,

High Pressure Die Casting (HPDC) of light alloys and Plastic Injection Molding (PIM) are two of the most representative large-scale production-line in manufacturing field, which are strategic for the EU-industry largely dominated by SMEs. Due to the high number of process variables involved and to the non-sinchronisation of the process control units, HPDC and PIM are most "defect-generating" and ...

A novel NIR-based instrument for in-line monitoring during injection moulding (OPTIJECT)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

"Injection moulding is a complex process and is dependent on the relationship between the supplied material and the processing conditions. The properties of the plastic materials are directly dependent on the temperature, time and environment. Any change in the injection moulding variables, such as temperature, pressure and speed, the mould temperature, the mould cooling temperature, the backpress ...

Development of a rapid configuration system for textile production machinery based on the physical behaviour simulation of precision textile structures (MODSIMTex)

Start date: Nov 1, 2008, End date: Apr 30, 2012,

The textile industry faces important challenges regarding the production of new advanced textile products. It is not possible to define the characteristics and parameters of a given textile structure due to the difficulty of measuring them. This situation makes very difficult to configure the machines involved in the production of such textiles; the typical practices consists in manufacturing samp ...
