Successful presentation session dedicated to LASERWAY – Horizon Europe 🛫🚗🌊
Last week, at the 𝟭𝟴𝘁𝗵 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗻 𝗛𝗶𝗴𝗵 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗠𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 – 𝗛𝗦𝗠 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱, the LASERWAY consortium showcased innovation in high-speed laser cutting, drilling, and coating, with leading research partners presenting their latest breakthroughs.
🔹 IDEKO Research Center, RCMT FME CTU in Prague, and Compo Tech PLUS introduced a highly dynamic crossed linear rail gantry design that enhances machine precision and responsiveness for next-generation laser systems.
🔹 IDEKO also shared insights into active vibration damping via load-side motion feedback, enabling greater stability and accuracy in machine tool feed drives.
🔹 Tekniker presented high-speed single-pulse microdrilling strategies to minimize defects in dense metallic panels, improving both quality and efficiency.
🔹 ModuleWorks showcased process planning for dual-head coil-fed laser cutting, a step toward more flexible and productive manufacturing lines.
🔹 RCMT highlighted two-stage feedrate optimization using analytical jerk gradients for faster, smoother motion control.
These results demonstrate how European collaboration is pushing the boundaries of laser-based manufacturing, integrating advanced mechanics, control systems, and process optimization to achieve unprecedented productivity and precision.
