Center for Innovation in Advanced Manufacturing Technologies
The Center for Innovation in Advanced Manufacturing Technologies (CFA) is a strategic project of the Regional Government of Andalusia, spearheaded by the Department of Economy, Finance, and European Funds.
Areas
The CFA has been designed based on a strategic model centered on four technological areas, which will be equipped with specific technology, taking into account technological trends in Advanced Manufacturing.
These areas were identified following an extensive market study of global technology trends and an analysis of the needs of Andalusian and national industrial sectors, particularly strategic ones such as the shipbuilding and aerospace industries.
Additive Manufacturing
Additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, is a revolutionary technology that has transformed the way industrial components are designed and produced.
Robotics
Robotics is an essential pillar of advanced manufacturing, thanks to its ability to improve efficiency, precision, and safety in production processes across a wide range of industries.
Metrology and Digitization
At the CFA, metrology and digitization play a key role in ensuring the quality of manufacturing processes.
Drones
At the CFA, the research, development, and application of drone-related technologies is one of the most innovative and strategic areas.
Sectors
Aeronautics & Space
Automotive
Construction and Infrastructure
