Demonstrators DeMaCo

Outgoing from a range of proposals from several sectors, three demonstrator cases were defined in collaboration with the industrial users. These demonstrators were used in the continuation of the project to feed, evaluate and enhance the decision tool.

Particular important for the definition of the demonstrators was:

• They were representative for the needs and typical applications in the target industry
• They covered a wide range of specifications (small, mid and large series; different geometrical complexities; different functionalities; etc.)
• They were tailored for the three processes RTM, RTM-Light and Vacuum Infusion

The following figures show the key features of the three demonstrators, as well as the discussed alternatives and the final component.
