As part of the EC's initiatives related to Additive manufacturing, including 3D printing, CassaMobile has been invited to present its findings at the International Cooperation Additive Manufacturing Cluster in Barcelona, Spain, on the 02/05/2016, back to back with the World Manufacturing Forum: http://www.worldmanufacturingforum.org/

At this occasion, CassaMobile coordinator Christian Seifarth (Fraunhofer IPA) will have the opportunity to discuss the CassaMobile concept and container development with researchers and industry representatives from allover Europe, the United States (including America Makes), Canada (including Canada Makes), South Africa and Mexico.

CassaMobile will be prominently represented at the Fraunhofer Direct Digital Manufacturing Conference 2016 (Sofitel hotel Berlin, 16-17 March 2016).

In a keynote by Richard Bibb from Loughborough University (UoL) as well as through presentations and posters by Christian Seifarth (Fraunhofer IPA) and Andrew Johnson (UoL), the CassaMobile system concept and container development will be presented to a wide audience from academia, applied research and industry.

The 6th CassaMobile consortium meeting took place on 17-18 Feb 2016.

Kindly hosted by the Loughborough university team, the consortium focussed on the mutual needs for further container development , opportunities to exhibit the container and plans for the container use beyond the project completion in August 2016.

An interesting tour we had at a Gin distillery nearby, an excellent curry dinner and British pub culture and hospitality were the rewards for two days of intensive discussions and agreements reached.

The third CassaMobile consortium meeting was hosted by partner Critical Manufacturing (CMF, www.criticalmanufacturing.com) in Oporto, PT on 17-18 Sep 2014. The meeting concentrated on the CassaMobile system concept and the progress made so far and provided a lot of room for discussion of the mutual needs of all. The meeting closed with a visit of the brand-new CMF facilities where we got to know the company's modern office culture and flair. Also the Porto cellars, the famous Francesinha sandwich, Portuguese hospitality and the lovely city centre were highlights of a great time we all spent in Oporto. 

The second Consortium Meeting was held 5th to 7th March 2014 (month 6 of the project). The meeting was hosted by use case partner Peacocks at the Vermont Hotel in Newcastle-upon-Tyne city centre. The first day of the meeting was devoted to exploitation with a seminar and working groups establishing exploitation strategies for the various work packages. The first day concluded with an excellent dinner in the city centre. The second day began with a presentation and tour of the Peacocks facility in Newcastle. This provided an excellent opportunity to see the traditional skills and craft that go into their products as well as their world-leading implementation of Additive Manufacturing for orthoses. The afternoon was devoted to work package group meetings. The second day included an interesting tour behind the scenes at St. James Park, Newcastle United’s football stadium followed by an excellent curry dinner. The meeting concluded with management and dissemination procedures being agreed and planning the next meeting.
