MAIPCO

Metodologie Avanzate di Ispezione e Controllo dei processi produttivi di strutture complesse in composito

Sector

Aeronautics

Product/Objective

The project focused on the development of highly automated on-line and off-line inspection and control technologies for production processes, which have enabled a significant reduction in production costs, increasing the competitiveness of the industrial partners in the project.

Project Summary

The MAIPCO project concerns defect analysis in the production of complex composite components in the aeronautical sector and has developed new methodologies to reduce these defects.

Innovation

1. An automatic artificial vision and signal analysis system with robotic movement (AVRIS) for the validation of assemblies (fuselage, transmission systems, stabilizer, fin);

2. The AVRIS System automatically identifies the presence / absence of the parts, their correct installation and the presence of the fixings.

ES Role

EnginSoft was involved in developing a methodology to manage the paths of Remote Piloted Aircraft Systems with respect to unforeseen events.

Some of our competences in research and technology transfer

Research project

SPACE

Scalable Parallel Astrophysical Codes for Exascale

The main specific objective of SPACE is to enable the most widely used European A&C HPC codes (which are also among the most widely used worldwide) to efficiently and effectively exploit the pre-exascale systems funded by EuroHPC Joint Undertaking and available at the end of 2022, and to prepare them for the transition to exascale and beyond.

Research project

GAP

High-Performance Cast Iron and Aluminum Alloys for Innovative Components

The GAP Project’s innovativeness lies in the development of innovative metallic materials with multi-sector application potential, increased by experimentation with new specific technologies (e.g. the use of ceramic cores for die-casting, surface treatments, and joining techniques).

Research project

OScaR

Optical SCAn-and-Repair solution for machine tools

The final goal of the project is to define a technology solution to repair metal components. End users require an automated or semi-automated solution for mounting a part of partially unknown shape into a machine, measuring the relevant part of its surface in 3D and automatically generating a repair program to restore it to the desired shape.
