Factory-in-a-day (FACTORY-IN-A-DAY)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2017,

"Factory-in-a-Day aims at improving the competitiveness of European manufacturing SMEs by removing the primary obstacle for robot automation; installation time and installation cost. The high costs result in payback periods, making the investment in robotized automation economically unattractive. Factory-in-a-Day will reduce the installation time (and the related cost) from months to one single d ...

International Network for the Training of Early stage Researchers on Advanced Quality control by Computed Tomography (INTERAQCT)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2017,

"The non-destructive quality control of a wide variety of high-added value products, produced by innovative manufacturing techniques, remains a challenge. Examples include additive manufacturing parts, micro parts, and fibre reinforced composite parts. Common to these workpieces is the dependency of their performance on internal and inaccessible elements. Nevertheless, customers in multiple sector ...

ADvanced Digital technologies and virtual engineering for mini-Factories (ADDFACTOR)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

In today globalized world, companies are trying to remain competitive through the adoption of a strategy where high quantity production of goods is the leverage to reduce costs.By negating this approach, ADDFactor proposes the “Mini-factories” concept, which is conceived to be an innovative solution for most of the actors involved in the whole supply chain: the relationship between retailers and t ...

Airway Disease PRedicting Outcomes through Patient Specific Computational Modelling (AirPROM)

Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Jun 30, 2016,

The airways diseases asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease affect over 400 million people world-wide and cause considerable morbidity and mortality. Airways disease costs the European Union in excess of €56 billion per annum. Current therapies are inadequate and we do not have sufficient tools to predict disease progression or response to current or future therapies. Our consortium, Air ...

MANufacturing decision and supply chain management SYStem for additive manufacturing (MANSYS)

Start date: Jul 1, 2013, End date: Jun 30, 2016,

ManSYS aims to develop and demonstrate a set of e-supply chain tools; to enable the mass adoption of Additive Manufacturing (AM). This will allow businesses to identify and determine the suitability of AM for metal products, and subsequently manage the associated supply-chain issues and ‘facilitating’ open product evolution.The proposed e-supply chain solution will combine all aspects of AM includ ...

Patient-specific predictions for bone treatments (CAD-BONE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

CAD-BONE addresses a multidisciplinary research that will transform current technology by radically improving the development of patient-specific computer models for the modelling of bone remodelling/healing to predict short and long-term bone response after surgical interventions. Specifically, CAD-BONE will combine image processing, musculoskeletal modelling tools, finite element analyses and bo ...

Improving safety and predictability of complex musculo-skeletal surgery using a patient-specific navigation system (TLEMsafe)

Start date: Mar 1, 2010, End date: Aug 31, 2014,

The burden of Musculo-Skeletal (M-S) diseases and prosthetic revision operations is huge and increasing rapidly with the aging population. For patients that require a major surgical intervention, procedures are unsafe, uncertain in outcome and have a high complication rate. The goal of TLEMsafe is to create an ICT-based patient-specific surgical navigation system that helps the surgeon safely reac ...

Ankle and Foot Orthotic Personalisation via Rapid Manufacturing (A-FOOTPRINT)

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

Disabling foot and ankle pain is common; it impacts negatively on health related quality of life, and it is has major cost implications on health systems across Europe. Foot and ankle orthoses are an effective treatment for these conditions. However, the market is dominated by low cost mass produced products, craftsmanship built customised devices with delivery times >15 days, and a limited ran ...
