This pilot project will enable building a new model of factory based on the widespread and applied knowledge of new 3D printing technologies, on processes and infrastructures shared by the various operators of the supply chain and on extensive training activities of the technical staff involved.<\/p>\n
The partnership involves two universities (Politecnico di Milano and the University of Pavia) and companies such as Tenova, BLM, GF Machining Solutions, 3D-NT, GFM, Fubri, Co.stamp Group, Officine Meccaniche G. Lafranconi.<\/p>\n
GFM is involved in the design and implementation of two case studies with hybrid technology: one for the mould sector and one for the energy sector.<\/p>\n
MADE4LO was launched in August 2017 for a total investment of 6.6 million euros, and is partially funded by the Lombard Region \u2013 as part of the Agreements for Research and Innovation \u2013 with a non-refundable grant of 3.5 million euros allocated by the European Fund of Regional Development.<\/p>\n
