The DILAPRO project is thrilled to announce an exciting new collaboration with the GEAR-UP project
(GEAR-UP is an innovative project that promotes resilient design and life-cycle environmental assessment to improve the performance and reliability of secondary materials like stainless steel, aluminum, and fiber-reinforced plastics in additive manufacturing. By integrating recycled materials into engineering design, GEAR-UP reduces reliance on virgin resources, cuts energy use, and lowers greenhouse gas emissions. The project champions a circular value chain and develops adaptable manufacturing technologies that can handle material variability, marking a significant shift toward sustainable engineering).

By combining its expertise with that of GEAR-UP, the DILAPRO project is set to drive even greater innovation and impact. The synergy between DILAPRO’s focus on using laser technologies for faster, more sustainable manufacturing and GEAR-UP's expertise in providing a roadmap for SMEs creates a powerful collaboration. Together, the two projects can accelerate the adoption of advanced manufacturing practices and help businesses reduce their carbon footprint while improving efficiency.

The DILAPRO project looks forward to a successful collaboration that will deliver substantial benefits to the manufacturing sector and contribute to a more sustainable future.
