WALiD will combine design, material and process developments using thermoplastic materials to create cost-efficient, lightweight and recyclable blades which will be demonstrated by industrial end-users. The power generated by off-shore wind turbines is proportional to the rotor plane area of the blade. However, the weight of large blades puts the materials used under considerable strain, leading t ...

Intelligent Mold for Productivity Enhancement (Mold4ProdE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2013,

The constant demand for diversified/personalised consumers' goods leads to decrease time-to-market, and to plastic injection molds with smaller batch production, with no stock acceptable for cost and quality reasons. This generates huge productivity losses in the molding industry: - Tool Tuning is too long for tool makers before delivery of a turn key mold. - New production run set-up time is too ...

Natural fibres offer a route to the production of sustainable composites, replacing inorganic and petrochemical based fibres with high-embodied energy. One of the main obstacles to the exploitation of natural fibres is the limited consistency of supply, with batch-to-batch variations in quality. Retting – a process whereby plant stems are left to weather in the fields – has been identified as bein ...

"The main goal of the project is to develop a new family of low cost polyolefin based components (sheets, pipes and fittings) to be used in the manufacture of flat-plate solar thermal collectors. These components are expected to be a viable alternative to current collector’s metallic components. However, due the current limitations of thermoplastics materials (low thermal conductivity and low resi ...

18% of the European consumption of bananas is produced in Canary Islands. Around 10 million banana plants are grown annually in Gran Canaria. The fibre obtained from the superposed layers of the pseudo-stem is called badana. In the past, the banana plant waste was used as a support element for tomato plants, and, for some decades, it was used in handicrafts such as basket-making and artificial flo ...
