ENFORCER | Design and Development of 3D Printed Force Transducers

Summary
Additive manufacturing (AM), as an advanced manufacturing technique, has the potential to transform the landscape of product development, manufacturing, and logistics, as well as increase sustainability in a variety of industries. Over the past ten years, AM, has gained widespread acceptance for producing various engineering and scientific components for research, commercial, and even medicinal uses. The aim of the project is to design and develop 3D printed force transducers. The specific objectives of the project are to contribute to the development of realistic concepts, realizing that transducers are of many sorts and configurations. The formulation of a model for extreme multi-physics situations is a significant goal of the work. The project has a strong multidisciplinary aspect, combining well-developed mechanics, material science, metrology, machine design, and computational analysis. This proposal includes both the transfer of knowledge to the host institution and the training of the candidate in new advanced techniques. This project is in line with the EU strategy for the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
