The project’s primary target is to setup industrial and competitive tools to perform Additive Manufacturing of aerospace components. 

In order to do this, it is necessary to select and develop the most suitable process related to each type of component.

The first part of the project aims at optimizing process parameters in function of the desired microstructure and mechanical properties. It also a must to put in place the upstream and downstream processes to ensure quality and repeatability of the parts.

OUR TECHNOLOGIES AND SOLUTIONS

Our expertise in Processes (dry and wet deposition, compounding, bioprocesses, 3D printing, plasma reforming...), Materials (sol-gel, metallic and inorganic coatings, paints and varnishes, (Bio)polymers) and Smart Devices (biosensors, optoelectronic, thermoelectric, electrochromic devices) is a fertile ground for our strategic axes:

In order to provide state of the art support to the industry, our experts rely on 2 technological platforms. The sintering platform proposes several densification techniques (SPS, Gas Pressure Sintering, HIP, HP…) to address all kind of ceramics oxides, nitrides, borides, carbides... The second platform gathers original rapid manufacturing technologies: selective laser melting, laser cladding, inkjet printing, laser and hydrid milling.
