Details

Summary:	The project has the main purpose to develop a new special precision casting product to supply turbochargers manufacturers. It will be a program of research and development in the vacuum foundry and casting technology of titanium alloys, technological development of ceramic moulds (shell and block mould), and technology of unconventional patternmaking (silicone rubbers and flexible wax) among others.
Results:
Observations:	Co- promotion Project with the Company Zollern & Comandita Portugal. This thecnology can be used for the production of custom fit human prosthesis.
