objectives oF tHe cooPeration
Small and Medium Enterprises (SME) are screening the fields
of applications and the economical and technological chances
of Additive Manufacturing (AM) for their own production
environment. While large companies invest considerably in
the innovative technology to open new business areas or
to improve existing products and processes, for many SMEs
there is a bottleneck in terms of skilled 3D-printing specialists
or of capital for investments in AM systems. Subsequently
SMEs run the risk of lacking competitiveness, especially for
metal processes.
This marks the starting point of the collaborative AM group
formed by the Fraunhofer ILT and the Aachen Univ. of
Applied Science (FH Aachen). It combines the knowledge
of the FH Aachen, especially in 3D applications, with the deep
understanding of generating metallic parts and the detailed
knowledge of machine’s architecture of the Fraunhofer ILT
specialists.
