In collaboration with IT’S Engineering, we have installed a new laser line sensor on the plug-and-produce AFP (automated fiber placement) system of our technology partner Addcomposites. This enables us and our SAM XL partners to monitor the geometry of the fiber placement in real time.
We would like to thank Smart Manufacturing Industrial Application South Holland for its financial support of this proof-of-concept project!
Through the Kansen voor West III programme, co-funded by the European Union, additional funding is available for innovation vouchers.

Rinze Benedictus and Joris Melkert have been appointed Officers of the Order of Orange-Nassau on the occasion of the King’s birthday. This royal honor recognizes their exceptional contributions to science, education, and society.
What if we can create the ideal conditions for thermoplastic AFP applications with in-situ consolidation, without the use of a laser and the associated thorough safety measures?
Today, State Secretary Willemijn Aerdts (Digital Economy and Sovereignty) visited our field lab. The development of the latest mobile technology, 6G, is in full swing. Our colleagues from Do IoT Fieldlab and TU Delft highlighted the role of 6G in strengthening digital sovereignty, innovation capacity, and economic growth. Taking a leading position is very important for the Netherlands and Europe.
The Dutch manufacturing industry is under increasing pressure due to an aging workforce, structural labor shortages, and rising labor costs. According to TNO, the accelerated adoption of robotics and automation is essential to maintaining competitiveness and safeguarding the Netherlands’ earning capacity.
