Abstract The project explores the possibility of using additive manufacturing (AM) of ceramic materials to produce ceramic tools for metal cutting. Among other advantages, this concept aims to manufacture ceramic tools with optimized cutting geometries, provide them with customized texturing of the cutting surface, generate [...]

Abstract The project aims to develop and optimize the additive manufacturing of metal parts using Metal Extrusion (MEX/M) as an alternative to conventional metal powder-based technologies, with the goal of reducing costs, energy consumption, and the risks associated with the handling of raw materials. The [...]

Abstract The TEDI project is a 36-month Erasmus+ Cooperation Partnership in Higher Education (KA220-HED) running from September 2024 to August 2027, co-funded with a grant of €250,000. Coordinated by Rzeszów University of Technology (Poland) alongside Kaunas University of Technology (Lithuania) and the University of Oviedo [...]

Abstract The processes utilized for Additive Manufacturing (AM) production of metallic parts usually entail the use of hazardous feedstocks, expensive production equipment, and high energy consumption. Metal Material Extrusion AM (MEX/M) presents an alternative multi-step approach that addresses these challenges by additively extruding polymer-metal composite [...]

Abstract: Additive manufacturing processes are opening up a world of possibilities towards obtaining parts with complex geometry and adjustable properties. Its impact in sectors such as biomechanics, energy or aerospace is already appreciable, but the forecasts point to a real revolution linked to the development [...]

Abstract The project aims to develop an integrated manufacturing and non-contact dimensional inspection system using sensors based on Conoscopic Holography (CH). To this end, these sensors will be integrated into machine tools, initially three-axis machines, by developing the necessary mounting, communication, control, and calibration systems, [...]
