Shared Infrastructure – CLUTEX V
Supplementation of the equipment of the detached workplace of the cluster with instruments necessary for R&D projects.
INTERNATIONALISATION – CLUTEX IV
The aim is to deepen the already existing contacts with foreign entities (clusters, research organisations, …) to find common topics for further research and development projects.
CORNET (Call 22) – Variabel Tool
The project focused on the technology of “incremental forming”, which is a method of drawing sheet metal using a so-called extrusion mandrel moving in 3 axes. The project aimed to develop a prototype of a forming device with a counter-rotating support mechanism suitable for the production of smaller parts for the piece production of unique single-purpose special machines or for the production of parts necessary for the construction of prototype devices. The goal was a technology similar in focus to 3D printing, but based on pull forming.
CORNET (Call 22) – WelConTex
The aim of the project was to develop a new reliable technology of electrically conductive interconnects applicable to smart textile products. The project involved the research and development of hybrid conductive yarns, yarns and electronic functional blocks, contacting them by ultrasonic welding and/or interconnection via conductive insertion materials including encapsulation. The developed joints were tested and evaluated with regard to the specific needs of SMEs.
CORNET – NANOHYBRID
The aim of the project is to develop innovative nanohybrid structures using non-woven technology (electrospinning).
CORNET – WELCONTEX 2
The aim of the project was to solve new reliable methods of electrically conductive interconnection for smart textile products based on a combination of ultrasonic and resistance welding technologies.
CORNET – 3DKNIT
The aim of the project was to develop a new type of textile material for upholstery applications to replace the current seat and chair covers.
GRAVIOLA
Development of a new textile surface finish using active ingredients from the bottlebrush (Annona muricata)
