ComMUnion aims to develop a novel solution for manufacturing productive and cost effective 3D metal/CFRTs multi-material components by addressing all the relevant value chain. Main results will be:
- Developing a new multi-stage joining robotic solution,
- High efficient and flexible surface condition solution,
- Developing a multi-scale modelling system,
- Implementing an embedded flexible control of the laser-assisted heating profile,
- Developing QDS in a multi-stage manufacturing approach based on active imaging techniques,
- Self-adjustment of process parameters,
- Demonstration of recycling/reuse of the components,
- Demonstration of a fully automated 3D joining multi-material technology applied to automotive and aeronautics.
AIMEN is the coordinator of the ComMUnion project. In addition, its technical role is to contribute with its competence in the field of laser texturing and cleaning for surface modification, characterization of the metal/CFRT joints, NDT inspection, and embedded control systems design.
