Success! We have received funding for the development of Athermalized technology! As part of the FENG Proof of Concept competition organized by the Foundation for Polish Science, we have secured a grant with a total value of 601,650.00 PLN (100% funding). The purpose of the Proof of Concept competition is to support scientists in verifying the market potential of their discoveries – for research and development work aimed at verifying the research hypothesis proposed in the application.Through this project, we will verify whether 3D printing with metal powders will allow us to overcome the main bottleneck of Athermalized technology – the need to create very precise compliant structures, previously manufactured using expensive wireEDM technology.

A total of 236 projects were submitted to the competition, with a success rate of 11.86 percent.

The project began on October 1, 2024, and will last for the entire year.
