As part of our commitment to strengthening collaboration with other Horizon Europe projects, BRIDGESMEs is supporting the dissemination of an upcoming webinar organised within the IDEALIST project, focused on advanced manufacturing technologies for European industry.
On Friday 13 March 2026 at 14:00 (CET), the online session Zero Defect Manufacturing will explore one of the most advanced approaches to ensuring quality in industrial production. The round table will address four key strategies in zero-defect manufacturing: detect, predict, repair and prevent, presenting concrete industrial use cases and technical solutions.
The session will feature contributions from Anton Evdokimov (CEO, Heatshape), who will present simulation software for welding and additive manufacturing; Janusz Popławski (Coordinator of the Flash-Comp project at Lortek), focusing on quality control in Liquid Resin Infusion processes; Christophe Roua (CEO, Cogit Composites), who will introduce Vision 5D for in-situ monitoring; and Alain Fanet (CEO, BonzAI), presenting acoustic sensors and deep learning applications for defect detection and predictive maintenance.
The webinar is part of the “Agora Talks” (Expert-to-Expert webinars) hosted on the AGORA platform and organised by EIT Manufacturing within the IDEALIST project. The objective is to connect innovative solution providers with potential users, promote European SMEs, and highlight advanced production technologies from an environmental performance perspective.
A second Expert to Expert webinar will follow on 10 April, focusing on the decarbonisation of composite parts production and exploring sustainable materials and processes for lightweight applications. More details will be shared soon.
