METAFACTURING

MetaFacturing is a Portuguese enterprise developing a digitized toolchain for metal part production that enhances process resilience through recycled material usage and reduces operational costs by minimizing scrap from out-of-specification parts. The company envisions creating a widely applicable Digital Twin framework to help industrial-scale manufacturers leverage data for improved time-to-market and product quality using model-based fusion and life cycle assessment technologies.

• Innovation: The project utilizes state-of-the-art technologies including efficient process simulation, data standardisation, and continuous Life Cycle Assessment to develop tailored industry solutions.
• Customers: Solutions target industrial scale parts manufacturers with a specific focus on metal parts who struggle to effectively use available part and process data.
• Operations: The initiative brings together six market leaders—FRONIUS, NEMAK, FILL, VITRONIC, BENTELER, and LTH—to cooperate closely in achieving new levels of leadership in sustainable manufacturing.
