Dr. Markus Maresch, head of the KI4LIFE innovation center, and Dr. Eva Eggeling, head of the Visual Computing competence center at Fraunhofer Austria.
An alliance of industry representatives, businesses and research institutes to assist firms in Carinthia with digitization and the key future issue of artificial intelligence
The planned system technology, with which the post-processing is to be automated, is constructed according to a modular principle.
In the Fraunhofer lighthouse project “futureAM – Next Generation Additive Manufacturing,” an alliance of six Fraunhofer institutes shall accelerate 3D printing with metal powder by at least a factor of ten. The first tangible results prove that this is not a dream of the future.
