Descrizione del progetto
Un contributo importante alla ricerca nel campo della produzione additiva in Europa
La produzione additiva viene rapidamente adottata in diversi settori quali quello aeronautico, biomedico e automobilistico. Poco si sa su come il materiale utilizzato influenzi la capacità portante del prodotto finale stampato in 3D. Ciò ostacola l’attuazione diffusa della tecnologia. Riunendo le università italiane e norvegesi di spicco a livello internazionale nella ricerca e nell’innovazione con università ceche, rumene e serbe a basso rendimento, il progetto SIRAMM si propone di affermare l’Europa in questo campo e di sostenere la ricerca presso il Politecnico di Timisoara in Romania. Programmi di scambio di personale, sessioni di formazione, laboratori e seminari consentiranno un intenso trasferimento delle conoscenze a sostegno dell’obiettivo del progetto.
Obiettivo
In spite of the growing importance of Additive Manufacturing (AM) technology for producing both plastics and metals parts used in different fields such as aeronautics, biomechanics and automotive, the criteria and methods for the safety evaluation of AM components are still not well established. Therefore, the lack of knowledge on the influence of the material quality on the load bearing capacity of the final product hinders the industrial exploitation of AM, preventing this powerful technology from being confidently used in every-day manufacturing processes, in particular in low developed European countries.
The overall objective of the SIRAMM project is to significantly strengthen research in the AM field at the Polytechnical University of Timisoara (UPT, Romania). To achieve this aim, SIRAMM will build upon the existing science and innovation base of UPT, creating a network with two internationally-leading counterparts at EU level: Norwegian University of Science and Technology (Norway) and the University of Parma (Italy).
In the long term, the project aims at laying the foundations for creating a pole of excellence on AM in Eastern Europe. For this reason, other two partners from low R&I performing countries, the University of Belgrade (Serbia) and the Institute of Physics of Materials, Academy of Sciences (Czech Republic) will also take part in this Twinning project.
To reach its goals, this 3-year project will be focussed on the implementation of knowledge transfer activities such as workshops and staff exchange, training events (i.e. summer schools, seminars) for early stage researchers, and dissemination and communication actions (i.e. web site, videos, open access publications, public engagement activities) for different audiences. To keep maintaning the knowledge transfer well beyond the duration of this project, a regular master course on AM technology will be also implemented in the coordinating institution.
