Base 3D

The project

The emerging group BASE 3D, coordinated by CIM UPC, is a group of research centers created to promote research, technological development and innovation in 3D Printing, and which propose is to increase the TRL (Technology Readiness Level) of various lines of additive manufacturing research.

SJD Barcelona children's Hospital leads the project FUSE3D - Technologies for material deposition.

Fuse3D focuses on the improvement of parts shaping systems by deposition of hot material in semi-molten or pasty form, mainly applicable to plastic, metallic or mixed materials (plastic / metallic / ceramic / inorganic). Materials that can be presented alone or hybridized to acquire new functionalities or make their processing viable through more efficient and sustainable methods, benefiting from the advantages provided by Additive Manufacturing and opening up new areas of uses and applications hitherto unexplored.

The following project is co-funded by the European Union through the European Regional Development Fund ERDF with the support of the Government of Catalonia through the Public Procurement of Innovation in Health programme.
