BACKGROUND OF THE PROPOSAL

Manufacturing AM market

─ 3 trillion € (21%) of the EU’s GDP ─ 20% of EU’s employment ⇒ 30 million jobs in 230 000 enterprises (SME mostly) (Eurostat, 2016) ─ EU market share of laser based manufacturing declined (39% in 2008 → 33% in 2012) ⇒ due to competition from Asia (Helmrath, 2015) ─ Threatened by lower wage economies and high tech rivals ─ Grew at a GAGR ≈ 35% to 35 bn € ⇒ will grow to

  • ver 90 bn € by 2020 if key technological

challenges can be overcome (Wohlers Report 2015) ─ Industrial machinery and consumer goods account for > 36% of the industries using (AM Valles, 2014) ─ Automotive, Aerospace and Medical: focus end- users for ENCOMPASS – 43% of the industries using AM

OVERALL OBJECTIVES

Integrated Design Decision Support (IDDS) system – slide 10 The integration at digital level enables numerous synergies between the steps in the process chain and in addition, the steps themselves (design, build and post-build processes) are being optimised by ENCOMPASS to improve the capability and efficiency

  • f the overall manufacturing chain

Allow Europe to achieve global leadership in this important field of net-shape AM

KEY FEATURES

This project received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 723833, and is an initiative of the Photonics and Factories of the Future Public Private Partnership.

The successful implementation of the ENCOMPASS project through our consortium will optimise AM post processing, enabling an average 42% reduction in time from ‘design to piece’, and an average 27% increase in process chain

  • productivity. The associated cost of production will be reduced by 26%. This is achieved by:

Calculation procedure validated using EU AMAZE project methodology
