Tech4Fab-CrossS3 <\/strong>is not just a concept: it is embodied in seven concrete research demonstrators<\/strong> (RDs).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These demonstrators are the test beds where we propel emerging technologies from the conceptual stage to industrial application (TRL 7\/8). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each one is linked to one of our four major research themes and is designed to provide targeted responses to the challenges facing the industry today.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
