ESAM - Evaluation System for Additive Manufacturing
Today, when a new component has to be manufactured, the choice of the supply and production value chain is mainly led by a techno-economic evaluation, and the "sustainability" of the solution is not considered. Given different efficiencies of the manufacturing processes, in terms of resources consumption, it is not ...

Feasibility study seat scan
In this project, the feasibility of a "measuring cushion for clinical use" is to be tested. The measuring cushion is to be designed in such a way that the anatomical body impression (relief) can be digitised. Central to this is a built-in pressure measurement (pressure height, direction and shear forces). The body ...

Optimisation of the tooth root geometry of plastic gears
The use of plastic gears in drives is growing rapidly, especially in the module size range 0.5 to 1.5 mm and at maximum load cycles during the product life of 105 to 106. A key factor for reliability is the tooth root strength of the gears. Although injection moulding, which is the common production method for ...
