Developing new ceramic materials particles and their combination with other materials for 3D printing processes can be complicated due to the non-plastic core of the material.

The additive manufacturing (AM) industry is thriving, with end-users from a growing group of sectors that become more and more interested in the capabilities of AM technologies.
The Basque city of San Sebastian has hosted the opening meeting for the European project ECOXY “Bio-based recyclable, reshapable and repairable (3R) fibre-reinforced EpOXY composites for automotive and construction sectors.”
With new designs, biodegradable materials and an advanced control system, the project will turn the current linear chain into a circular one.
The project is entitled FALCON and the objective of this project is to design and manufacture an innovative tooling system to produce composite parts for airplanes. To achieve this goal a budget of 496.250€ will be invested in 18 months.
