IBC brings together renowned industrial partners and prestigious academic partners in the 3d printing industry.

In a context of strong competition in the global industry, IBC aims to develop an innovative technological networking offering to enable manufacturers to meet the challenges of competitiveness and differentiation and enter the era of the "factory of the future".

While current production processes and tools no longer meet the needs of industrialists, who manufacture increasingly complex high-end parts, our partners aim to revolutionize the industry by developing a digital chain, "from idea to piece" for the manufacture of new products.

One of its projects is the digital chain, which relies on additive manufacturing technologies, now no longer limited to the manufacture of plastic parts but also metal or ceramic, offering the possibility of transmitting computer data rather than objects, anywhere on the planet, for local production.

The ambition is to streamline the costs, time and cycle time of new product design and to increase the diversity and quality of conceivable products (high-end, customization, size and precision).
