Research projects
In order to always keep in the frontline of technology, SWANTEC has constantly
been engaged in many research
projects through all the years in collaboration with companies,
institutes and universities. This has been the driving force for the
continuous developments of SORPASŪ based on the results of research
projects as well as the feedback from users according to
requirements of industrial applications. Below are some ongoing and
completed research projects.
Ongoing research projects:
XPRESS (2007-2010):
Flexible Production Experts for Reconfigurable Assembly Technology
A European research project XPRESS financed by the European Commission
for 4 years (2007-2010) involving 17 partners from 9 European
countries aiming at developing flexible production experts for
reconfigurable assembly technology in 3 representative industrial
sectors (automotive, aeronautics and electrical). SWANTEC is participating
as industrial partner responsible for welding simulations. Further

.
InnoJoint (2006-2010):
Innovative Joining Processes Applying Integrated Modelling
A Danish national research project INNOJOINT on numerical modeling
of resistance and friction stir welding processes for 4 years
(2006-2010), which is financed by the Danish Research Council
with a consortium of five departments from DTU and SWANTEC as
the sole industrial partner.
Completed research projects:
