5 axis fs laser CNC Machining | seeking SMEs, mid-caps and (non-AI) RTO / HEI support

Senior Researcher at Irish Manufacturing Research

Dublin, Ireland

About

Irish Manufacturing Expertise are seeking industrial (SME, midcap) and research based (RTO, RO & HEI) institutes for the development of applied laser CNC machining. The machine is equipped with nanosecond (ns) and femtosecond (fs) IR sources for high throughput processes and extreme surface control respectively. The machine comes with extreme mechanical stability and 5 axes of motion for ultimate control on part manufacturing and design.

From industry partners, we are seeking applications in and offering support for micromachining, surface texturing to provide functionalisation of parts (hydrophobic, hydrophilic, grip / slip). From research institutes, we are seeking support in physical modelling, simulation, and non-AI based support and collaboration from RTOs, ROs and HEIs.
