Intelligent sensorised cutting tools through functional coatings

Aim of the project

Develop a sensor with functional coatings, which allows more accurate and robust information to be obtained on the real situation of the machining process: forces, temperatures, degree of tool wear, etc.

Role of Vicomtech

Vicomtech has been in charge of developing the tools based on artificial intelligence. This can transform the complex signals coming from the novel sensors developed in the project into processed and useful information to help improve the company's business intelligence.
