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.
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...
The product allows to carry out an energy performance assessment in municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Following a preliminary data collection and related statistical processing, specific energy performance indicators are introduced in...
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...
SENECA is a tool to integrate with Environmental Management Systems able to support organizations, particularly in a more efficient management of energy consumption of buildings (both industrial and residential). The service is achieved through a web...
The EDIT Value tool supports companies, especially Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), step-by-step and thanks to specific forms and checklists, in raising their awareness about the quantity and quality of the resources they use, the real costs...
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...
Automatic monitors analyzing atmospheric particulate allow to verify air quality in indoor and outdoor environments, to assess the exposure of the population to pollutants in different living environments, to identify the cause-effect relationships...
The application of the Life Cycle Analysis methodology (LCA) to Italian livestock sectors, enables analyzing the potential environmental impacts arising from farm production systems. The Life Cycle Assessment method has been standardised by ISO...
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...
