A collection of case histories of successful collaborations between High Technology Network Laboratories and businesses. These are tangible and customisable examples of the application of new technologies, products, or services that show how industrial research can meet the needs of innovation.
This custom GSE (Ground Support Equipment) was designed to replicate space conditions on ground (vacuum and temperature gradients) and test selected space hardware for satellites performing also electrical and optical measurements.
An automatic system for laser marking was developed in cooperation with Robby Moto Engineering (RME), by adding a vision system to a LASIT commercial marker. The system is able to recognize the pieces inserted in the machine and autonomously complete...
The DIGIMAN project aims to develop tools to support the transformation of a generic industrial machinery into a Cyber-Physical System. This result will be possible thanks to the definition and implementation of a hardware-software platform, called...
DTM has developed a filling valve to allow gas, liquid or fuel filling for extra high purity and high pressure applications. Main characteristics are high robustness environemntal conditions and reliability together with very low leak-rates and...
The evolution of machine tool industry is linked to the stakeholders’ need to constantly increase productivity, which means constantly improving the applied technologies. The research for increased sustainability, combined with the reduction of...
Design, development and qualification of heat exchangers for aerospace application or for other industrial fields where very high reliability and functioning in harsh environment is required. These technologies allow to cool, heat and in general...
Titanium alloys and Ni-based super-alloys are notoriously difficult to machine materials mainly because of their low thermal conductivity. This causes high cutting temperatures with a consequent triggering of a series of problems related to thermal...
The experiences accumulated within the MUSP Laboratory in the field of redesig and, more broadly, design of structural parts of various types of machine tools, with conventional materials (especially electro-welded steel) and innovative ones such as...
In the industrial realm it is now possible to have large amounts of data in various applications, from process monitoring to adaptive control. This “data rich” environment is mainly supported by two factors: the continuous development of high...
