EFFICOMP (Efficient Composite parts manufacturing) is a RIA collaboration established between Europe and Japan, aiming to contribute to the reduction of costs and increase of ramp up production of composite parts for structural applications on aerospace products.

Aiming at a TRL of 4-5 for innovative, cost- and time-efficient technologies, the project examines a series of parallel technical objectives with regards to the fast-track and cost-effective production and manufacturing of load-critical composite parts in the aeronautics industry, and more specifically with regards to the reduction of materials’ costs, new heating solutions, resistive heating techniques, new concepts in the mold environment, forming and joining of composite parts, and sparking detection.

Being an EU-Japan collaboration, the EFFICOMP project brings together 5 European and 4 Japanese partners who will perform coordinated research and innovation actions on topics of common interests, thus contributing to the deepening and widening of the existing cooperation between Europe and Japan.
