There will be interconnection network Protolab official opening on 17th of December at 2 p.m. in Ventspils High Technology Park.
Protolab Network is a cross border interconnection network, which was established by Estonia-Latvia cross border interconnection programme project “Protolab Network”. Protolab Network involves three main partners – Tartu Science Park (TSP), Ogre Business and Innovation Incubator (OBII) and Engineering Research Centre of Ventspils University College (VERC).
Each partner has different competences. Tartu SP specialises in precision mechanics and OBII in electronics. Ventspils Protolab specialises in rapid prototyping services, using the given advantages of CAD/CAM/CAE technologies. For Latvian companies and interconnection partners there is available such services in Ventspils Protolab:
- printing necessary 3D prototype part or architectural model of composite materials (including coloured parts), elastomer or ABS plastics;
- 3D laser scanning of mechanical items;
- designing 3-D parts and assemblies, creating documentation (drawings, specifications etc.), motion simulations, rendering photorealistic pictures, stress analysis using FEA, designing moulds;
- training and retraining of designers and engineers (SolidWorks, Unigraphics NX, CADStar and other software);
On 7th October 2009 project main partner already had Tartu Protolab Official opening.
