The new project BeFORE - Barrier for recycling - in which Sirris is involved, focuses on recyclable material innovations for ’contact sensitive’ plastic and paper packaging with high quality barrier ...
On 7 February 2023, holding and clamping technology manufacturer Schunk is organising an event to demonstrate its iTENDO2 process monitoring system, in cooperation with Sirris. All machining ...
In 2023, at the request of the foundries and their customers, Sirris will once again organise a foundry technology course. This course offers you practical, in-depth knowledge of all the important ...
3D printing, digitalisation, ultrasonic replication, integrated electronics, ... all these technologies can enhance products, even on microscale! Micromanufacturing offers industrial companies, large ...
The friction behaviour of surfaces can be tuned by laser structuring. Recently, an industrial application of controlling friction by surface texture is presented for large marine ship engines. In the ...
Many components suffer a loss of performance due to ice formation. Various technologies are available to 'armour' surfaces against ice or frost formation. In this area, too, micro- and nanostructures ...
How can an anti-icing coating help combat icing problems? How can it be implemented and how can its effect be simulated in a lab? These are the questions behind the launch of the COOCK project Fighting Icing and the NewSkin programme.
Although a range of working methods and calculation models is available to help optimise a machining process, many of these have wholly or partly fallen into disuse. We are seeking to change that with ...
To prevent prostheses from becoming contaminated with bacteria, their surface can be coated with a bacteria-killing microstructure. Moreover, this coarsening improves the adhesion of the bone to the ...
26 May 2022 is the official date of application for the Regulation 2017/746 on in vitro diagnostic medical devices (IVDR), thereby repealing the old IVD directive 98/79/EC. There are still many ...
Last September, the European Triple-A-COAT project was kicked-off by the project partners having a 2-day meeting in Leuven. The project aims to develop a bio-based nanocellulose coating platform with ...
