Remote Laser Welding System Navigator for Eco & Resilient Automotive Factories (RLW Navigator)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Jun 30, 2015,

RLW Navigator aims to develop an innovative Process Navigator to configure, integrate, test and validate applications of Remote Laser Welding (RLW) in automotive assembly addressing today's critical needs for frequently changing operating conditions and product-mix provisions. Thus, RLW Navigator will crucially serve as an enabler for future energy efficient smart factories. RLW is emerging as a p ...

Manufacturing Error-free Goods at First Time (MEGAFIT)

Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2014,

Today, Europe’s leading position in manufacturing of high-precision metal parts is being threatened by developed non-EU countries that catch up quickly on product quality at low cost. If no further action is taken, loss of jobs and GDP are at risk.To face global competition, a breakthrough is needed in tackling the following 4 challenges:1) High number of defects2) Many costly, energy consuming fi ...

High Quality Tube and Pipe Production by Hybrid Welding (HQ-TUBES)

Start date: Aug 1, 2008, End date: Jul 31, 2010,

"Hybrid laser-arc welding offers many advantages compared with conventional arc or laser welding. The process does, however require a high level of control if high quality welds are to be produced. This proposal tackles the issues of weld quality and productivity improvement for manufacturing pipes through development of advanced sensors for the hybrid laser-arc welding process. Hybrid process dev ...
