 CIRTES, European Centre of Rapid Product Development
CIRTES, European Research Centre for Rapid Prototyping and Rapid Tooling, is located in the heart of the industrial area of Saint-Dié-des-Vosges (France) since 1991. CIRTES also has a subsidiary office in the South-west of France in Carmaux.
CIRTES, Innovation by Recherche & Development
From its platform equipped with the main processes of digitalisation, CAD/CAM, Rapid Prototyping and Tooling, Rapid Manufacturing, High Speed Freeform Machining and three-dimensional measurement (2 000 m2 dedicated), CIRTES offers its facilities to companies, in a contractual way, its teams of Research and Technology Transfer in the field of the new processes for the rapid product development.
Main CIRTES research works is directed towards a technological research for processes, and particularly according to two directions:
 |
- R&D on its Rapid Prototyping and Tooling Process : Stratoconception®,
- R&D on High Speed Machining and its cutting monitoring system:
ACTARUS® system
