MUFASA project aims to develop the capabilities of the Spanish industrial fabric aimed at meeting the technological challenges associated with the automation of the assembly of aerostructures, focusing on each of the individual components of the Future Non-Pressurized Rear Fuselage and Empennage (or tail): i) horizontal stabilizer (HTP), ii) rear fuselage (section S6) and iii) tail cone (section S6.1); as well as the final integration of the three components so that they form a single component, increasing their level of integration and production rate, and reducing cost and energy consumption by eliminating assembly operations and templates. MUFASA also contributes to achieving sustainable aviation by analyzing new assembly concepts for the future zero-emission hydrogen-powered aircraft.

CUVICO project proposes a qualitative technological leap that enables the manufacture of complex and integrated fuselage structures for very high-speed commercial aircraft using composite materials (carbon fiber), so an optimized and multidisciplinary design of structures can be carried out to form part of a new, ultra-efficient advanced fuselage, contributing to the development of the zero-emissions aircraft.

OPTIMUS project aims to promote the mission “Boosting Spanish industry in the industrial revolution of the 21st century”, pursuing the development of disruptive technologies for the industry aimed at its transformation and digitalization that generate greater competitiveness, greater resource efficiency and are supported by digital transformation and connectivity. OPTIMUS addresses the development of flexible automated manufacturing processes (multi-operational), for processing multi-material/multifunctional parts and with embedded sensors; the hybridization between the physical and digital environment; collaborative environments between person-robot, robot-robot, person-machine/production systems, with modeling, simulation and advanced programming of collaborative scenarios; and technologies for eco-design and sustainable, safe and efficient industrial production in all links of the chain.
