The First CMI Symposium was held on November 12, 2013 at ENEOS Hall, KomabaUCampus, The University of Tokyo
Aiming for a rapid progress of manufacturing technology that supports the base of aircraft industry, in which major development is expected hereafter, a project through industry-university-government cooperation has launched last year. The Collaborative Research Center for Manufacturing Innovation (CMI) has been founded this April in the Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo and a full-scale R&D among six laboratories has started. Furthermore, in addition to the CMI start-up members, new members which agreed to CMI’s purpose are scheduled to join the project this October.

Research objects of CMI are technological developments for rapid and high value-added manufacturing, environmentally conscious manufacturing and manufacturing with the minimum natural resources and less amount of rare metals related to aircraft manufacturing, but we are aiming for a rapid progress by enhancing the skill of manufacturing technology into manufacturing science. Applicable products are not limited to aircrafts and as a successful example of project through industry-university-government cooperation, we are also expecting to expand it into other industrial fields in the future. |
We would like to think together about ”Innovation in Manufacturing Technology for Aircrafts” at today’s symposium. |
