In order to promote independent cooperation between existing Swiss research organisations in the field of Advanced Manufacturing, SATW has founded the Advanced Manufacturing research association. The main focus is on the areas of additive manufacturing processes and Industry 4.0.
The Additive Manufacturing Thematic Platform supports SATW with regard to the early identification process for new technologies. The focus is on the identification of possible future developments and trends in the field of additive manufacturing that may be of interest and importance for the Swiss economy and for science. This should help to position Switzerland correctly in these relevant areas and to provide suitable structures to derive the greatest possible benefit from the new technologies.
