Descripción del proyecto
La inteligencia artificial catapulta la antigua tecnología de extrusión al siglo XXI
Las extrusoras se utilizan desde hace muchos años en la industria. Constan de un tornillo giratorio en un barril cilíndrico que empuja materiales como los metales, plásticos o arcilla, a menudo a través de una matriz o molde, para darles forma. Más recientemente, las extrusoras se han utilizado para producir materiales de alta tecnología, entre los que se encuentran los nanocompuestos formados por matrices biodegradables y rellenos de nanomateriales. Con el apoyo de las Acciones Marie Skłodowska-Curie, el equipo del proyecto PROMATAI tiene previsto presentar un prototipo de la primera extrusora inteligente del mundo que utiliza algoritmos de IA para ajustar en tiempo real la geometría de la extrusora a las dimensiones del material. Esto aumentaría la eficiencia, reduciría los residuos y el consumo de energía y abriría la puerta a nuevos materiales para su transformación.
Objetivo
"PROMATAI project aims to develop a product in the field of testing the extrusion method of nanomaterials/bio(nano) composites using AI algorithms. Prototype will be developed and made of a special design for the Feed Opening Section (FOE), the Adjustable Groove Section (AGFS), the Rotary Barrel Section (RBS) and the additional Plasticizing System (PS) of the single-screw extruder, which will be tested in virtual and real conditions of their operation depending on the size of the introduced part. It is assumed that these improvements will increase the efficiency of the extrusion process, reducing the amount of waste and energy usage and enable usage of new materials. The first prototype in the world of a ""smart extruder"" is planned, which will adjust its geometric elements to the dimensions of the material. Project activities are aimed at significantly strengthening cooperation between industry and academia, creating new and transferring existing knowledge between partners. Project consists of 7 WPs: WP1-4 are focused on the development of innovative extruder elements, including: FOE, AGFS, RBS and the entire plasticizing system. WP5 focuses on networking activities conducted by delegations, including workshops, trainings, and lectures on the topic of the project and the development of skills in the field of R&D infrastructure, competences, digitization and internationalization. WP6 is about the wide dissemination of knowledge and the exploitation of project results (conferences, fairs, publications, IPR, website, social media, outreach to public activities), WP7 is about management and administration of the whole project. PROMATAI is coordinated by Łukasiewicz Research Network - Institute of Engineering of Polymer Materials and Dyes (Poland), partners are: Lublin University of Technology (Poland), Technical University of Kosice (Slovakia), University of West Attica (Greece), LPH a.s. (Slovakia), UAB Dirmeta (Lithuania) and Cerca Trova Ltd (Bulgaria).
