INTERNATIONAL PARTNERS AND ALLIANCESThe TNO SRP is an international research program. The program includes industry leaders across the manufacturing value chain: multinationals and small/ medium-sized entities. A strong alliance with international research institutes delivers Shared Research partners access to an extended knowledge base and advanced facilities and equipment.
THE PROGRAMThe TNO SRP is divided into several Technology Programs and Application Programs that cover specific market segments and technologies, identified through a series of interviews with industry leaders. Each program has a roadmap which is aligned and steered by the partners. Within each program, partners actively participate to define the program plan, elements, objectives and timeframe. Partners can choose to participate in multiple programs or limit participation to just one program.
PARTICIPATION IN THE SRPThe shared research program starts in 2013. Partners participate financially with a yearly partnership fee. A partial in-kind (equipment or materials) participation fee is open for discussion. An even more active participation in the SRP is offered to the partners by hosting industrial residences. This ensures an optimal knowledge transfer to partners. The SRP is an open consortium which means that new partners are allowed to enter the program at any time. Apart from access to relevant TNO background IP, Partners receive co-ownership or licences on IP generated in a specific program line through participation. Partners joining the consortium at a later point in time will be charged an entrance fee to compensate for development of IP generated from the inception of the program.
Every quarter, results are reported to the partners in the specific programs. Twice a year, Partner Days are organized to discuss the research planning for the next half year and to meet all partners face to face.
Detailed information on the research agenda and on terms and conditions for participa-tion can be obtained via the contact person of this brochure.
Besides having a focus on application and technology programs the TNO Shared Research Program has an equal strong focus on materials.In general the materials within our focus are Metals, Plastics/Polymers and Ceramics.
PARTNERSHIP
WHY ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING?Additive Manufacturing is not limited to the replacement of existing manufacturing processes but, it has the potential to completely revolutionize manufacturing. Today, the most established use of Additive Manufacturing is rapid prototyping. Also, efficiency has been demonstrated for consumer applications as well as for medical devices and implants. With the optimization of materials, equipment and processes, Additive Manufacturing can also be introduced to complex manufacturing environments to deliver tremendous advantages. > Design Freedom> Customization Economy > Material Efficiency> Production Predictability> Market Responsiveness
OPPORTUNITIES FOR DEVELOPMENTMarket acceptance of Additive Manufacturing is trending in reverse from traditional technology development starting with low-tech consumer markets and industrial prototyping, now moving to high-tech, high-precision, high-complexity manufacturing. But today’s equipment, materials and processes cannot support the stringent requirements of complex manufacturing applications. Opportunities for development and optimization have been identified and are fueling initiatives around the world. Many of these programs are funded and driven by companies to drive internal competitive initiatives. Only with an integral approach and engagement of the entire manufacturing value chain, current challenges and barriers can be addressed. > Reproducibility> Tight Tolerance Levels> Expanded Material Portfolio> Extended Product Size> Increased Production Speed> Advancement of Additive Manufacturing
Education
ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING FOR HIGH TECH, HIGH PRECISION AND HIGH COMPLEXITY
Coherent approach.
The Shared Research Program is a unique innovation eco-system created for high-tech, high-precision and high-complexity manufacturers and suppliers to develop the materials, processes and equipment required to facilitate the rapid adoption of Additive Manufacturing. Through careful partner consideration, it is able to connect industry experts from the manufacturing value chain in a collaborative environment to inspire creativity and lower the risk of Additive Manufacturing development. Founded on its strong portfolio of research and development, TNO delivers a proven approach to successfully bridge the gap between research and commercialization.

PROVEN MODEL OF A SHARED RESEARCH PROGRAMThrough careful partner consideration, a SRP connects industry experts across the entire value chain in a collaborative environment to inspire creativity and lower development risk. The success of the Shared Research Program (SRP) has been demonstrated by TNO and consortia partners in a series of on-going large scale research and development initiatives. Key benefits of the shared approach are:> Access to new knowledge and
technologies> Lower R&D risk> Shorter time to market > Increased return on fixed R&D budget> Access to industry experts across the
entire value chain
ACCESS TO EXCLUSIVE PATENTS, RESOURCES AND FACILITIESThis SRP is founded on fifteen years of Additive Manufacturing research and development by TNO. With more than thirty-five patents on Additive Manufacturing process- and equipment development, this SRP provides partners an exceptional background to
jump-start the development of the next phase of the technology. The TNO facility in Eindhoven, the Netherlands hosts a world-class Additive Manufacturing line that serves as the AM laboratory and program research facilities. A team of more than forty scientists, engineers, program managers and designers have been assembled to drive the SRP program to success.
