Overview

AIMEN Technology Centre was set up in 1967 as an initiative of the industry as a non-profit private association. The Centre is focused in developing and strengthening the competitive capacities of companies through the promotion and execution of R&D&i activities, as well as providing technological services of high added value.

The goal of the AIMEN is to be a technological and strategic partner, thus contributing to the improvement of their technological capabilities and increasing their competitiveness.

AIMEN expertise in advanced manufacturing has enabled a cross-sectorial collaboration activity with several industrial areas that go from aeronautics to chemical and petrochemical, automotive, shipbuilding, construction, energy, metal mechanical, etc. To such wide range of industrial sectors, AIMEN provides technological services and engages in R&D&i activities in different areas such as High Performance Materials, Smart Manufacturing, Laser Based Manufacturing, Laser-assisted manufacturing, Micro and…  -   Joining Technology Plant
