Euspen 19th International Conference and Exhibition

The project

EMPIR project <link research-innovation/search-research-projects/details/?tx_eurametctcp_project[project]=1532&eurametCtcp_project%5Bback%5D=450&cHash=00f8a14e1799a4d8d76e8d3d16865735>‘Multifunctional ultrafast microprobes for on-the-machine results’</link> (17IND05, MicroProbes) is working to develop tactile microprobes and their industrial use for material surface requirements such as roughness, elasticity and contamination.

By integrating such devices into the manufacturing process, in-line product inspection could be 30 times faster compared to off-line methods; production-line efficiency and waste reduction through improved quality control therefore delivers direct economic and environmental benefits.

The workshop (3 June, 15:00 – 18:00)

Results from the project will be presented at the Euspen 19th International Conference and Exhibition, where the project consortium is hosting a workshop entitled Multifunctional ultrafast micro-probes for on-the-machine measurements.

 

The conference (3 – 7 June)

Euspen’s international conference and exhibition provides a leading forum for industrialists and academics to review the best of world-wide industrial innovation, progressive research and technology developments.

Topics to be covered include:

  • Measuring Instruments and Machine Tools: Design and Performance
  • Mechatronics and Control
  • Metrology
  • Advances in Precision Engineering and Nanotechnologies
  • Mechanical Manufacturing Processes
  • Non-Mechanical Manufacturing Processes
  • Replication and Additive Manufacturing
  • Applications of Precision Engineering in Biomedical Sciences
  • Handling, Robotics and Automation
  • Industry 4.0 for Precision Manufacturing
  • Precision Design in Large Scale Applications

Registration

This EMPIR project is co-funded by the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme and the EMPIR Participating States.
