Eurecat's "Compositronics" Technology!

The technology center @Eurecat has announced tests in manufacturing with Compositronics for the development of functional composite materials, by combining various manufacturing processes, flexible printed electronics, and insertion of components, which provide new features in terms of lightness and in the cheapening of industrial assembly.





According to the director of the Composite Materials Unit at Eurecat, María Eugenia Rodríguez, Compositronics "is the perfect combination for the development of functional lightweight structures". That is, "thanks to the lightness of composites and printed electronics, it is possible to significantly reduce the weight of components and large structures, and reduce costs in assembly processes with the introduction of sensors during the manufacture of the composite".


The various processes "are carried out at Eurecat's facilities, at Plastrónica's pilot plant and in the laboratories of the technology center's composite materials unit," adds María Eugenia Rodríguez.


Very interesting concept! We look forward to see how it develops!
