PROGRAM MORE INFORMATION

Micronarc regularly organizes breakfasts or lunches at companies or partners in its ecosystem. These moments of networking and exchange enable you to plunge into the heart of innovation around industrial, micro and nano themes.

On June 12, Micronarc is organizing a visit to the Industrial Systems Institute of the HES-SO Valais.

You'll learn about the production of metal, ceramic and metal-ceramic composite parts from powders. We'll also talk about powder compaction, sintering, powder injection molding, strip casting and hot isostatic pressing, which are all part of conventional processes.

With the advent of additive manufacturing, powder technology has become one of the pillars of the fourth industrial revolution.

This event will take you on a tour of the Powder Technology and Advanced Materials (PTAM) research group, which is conducting a number of projects to develop new materials and manufacture parts for the automotive, medical, aerospace and energy industries, among others.
