2015


INDEX1. WHAT WE ACHIEVED

2. HOW WE DID IT

3. HOW I4MS HELPED

4. HOW WE WILL TAKE IT FORWARD


WHAT WE ACHIEVEDChallenge

Forming of ultra high strength steelUHS steel breaks when cold formedglobal heating is energy consuming slow heating changes material properties

cold formed steel breaks locally heated steel forms well

spring back with wrongprocess parameters


WHAT WE ACHIEVEDInnovation

Compact laser diode module for local heating robust to vibration and dustexcellent performance

New process design constant material propertiesNear net-shape of final product

Seamless integration into the production line integration


HOW WE DID ITNovel packaging concept

Power density of a single diode bar doubledUnique beam profile 100x0,7 mm


HOW I4MS HELPED

MONOCROM - SME manufacturer of special diode lasers technology for high power density, solderless solutionsexperience in space, medical and other special applications lack of experience in industrial materials processing applications

and access to customers in this segmentProposed solution for the FLAT Assessment transfer of existing technology to a novel customized, rugged and

compact HP diode pack


HOW I4MS HELPEDBenefits received from the LASHARE Assessment Approach

Matching demand to supply Increased visibility of Monocrom as small manufacturer of

solutions that have large scale impactAccelerated product developmentCustomer requirements (USR) with process knowledge (AIMEN)

matched to available technology base (monocrom)LCC support: complementary knowledge in process

development, Resources Challenge for simulation providerReadiness for industrial deployment at reduced riskThe support for tests of a high TRL prototype in a real industrial

environment (validation phase), reduces the risk for user and supplier paving the way for a solid market penetration


HOW WE WILL TAKE IT FORWARD

Develop the product to an integrated package standardize interfaces integrate signallingadvanced safety featuresexplore new markets

and applicationsEnable new process development and machine concepts
