Outline of CMI

Purpose

Through Industry, Academia, and Government Cooperation ※1, CMI will proceed progressive and innovative R&D of manufacturing and contribute to rapid and high value manufacturing, environmentally conscious manufacturing, and manufacturing with minimum natural resources and less amount of rare metals. Industry, Academia, and Government Cooperation

In order to resolve the common pain of aircraft manufacturing, we will carry out research and development of processing technology and etc. for carbon-fiber composite material which is one of the main materials of sustainable development of today’s society, but at this research center, we will not limit to aircraft manufacturing technology and promote collaborative research ※2 of manufacturing in a broad sense.


Research Object
