Classification of retreaded truck tyres in order to comply with future environmental performance and safety requirements (RETYRE)

Start date: Apr 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

In this project is considered the possible impact of new European regulations–regarding new tyres safety and environmental performances–on the SMEs working with retreaded tyres. One expected consequence of these on new tyres will be the slow decreasing of the interest on retreaded tyres in the market. This will compromise the future activity of SMEs working in the field, and also determine a fatal ...

Simulation Based Solutions for Industrial Manufacture of Large Infusion Composite Parts (INFUCOMP)

Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2013,

"Today, advanced composites use either layers of plies impregnated with resin (pre-pregs) to form a laminate, or Liquid Composites Moulding (e.g. RTM) of dry textiles. Prepreg composites give superior mechanical properties due to toughened resins and high fibre content, but suffer from high material costs, limited shapeability, complex, expensive and time consuming manufacturing, and limited mater ...

Industrialization of Manufacturing Technologies for Composite Profiles for Aerospace Applications (IMac-Pro)

Start date: Jul 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

Main aim of the project is the development of a complete, integrated process chain for the cost effective serial production of various aerospace CFRP stiffener profiles. The production is foreseen in the two steps: Preform manufacturing and infiltration / curing. The project will focus on complex profile geometries with variable cross sections, single or multiple curvature and integrated load int ...

Development of energy efficient / lightweight composite parts and tooling based on Tailored Fibre Placement technology / self heating technology (EMBROIDERY)

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

"Composite materials are being used extensively in many industrial applications with higher production needs than the yielded by current technologies. New developments such as textile preforming combined with liquid moulding technologies will support this tendency. Nevertheless, there are still some drawbacks. More repeatable and automated processes are required and tools must be developed to assi ...
