There is something energising about gathering the whole consortium in one place, and the M30 General Assembly held on 19–20 May 2026 in Enschede, The Netherlands, was no exception. Hosted by partner AELS at the People@places Enschede Technology Base, the meeting brought together the full COMPASS consortium for two intensive and productive days, marking a […]
The third factsheet from COMPASS is dedicated to Composite Part Remanufacturing, presenting an end-to-end workflow that transforms defective composite parts into valuable, reusable resources. The process starts with part design, feeding into a lay-up process that generates CAD data for manufacturing. Once manufactured, parts undergo a QA inspection, producing a structured report that feeds both […]
The second factsheet from COMPASS is dedicated to Sheet Metal Remanufacturing, showcasing how digital technologies and circular manufacturing strategies can extend the value of metal components throughout their lifecycle. The factsheet presents the COMPASS approach for managing different types of feedstock—including blanking scrap, stamping scrap, end-of-life components, and aircraft dismantling materials—through an integrated digital ecosystem […]
COMPASS has published a new factsheet dedicated to End-of-Life (EOL) Parts Dismantling and MRO, outlining the digital and physical workflow that transforms decommissioned components — from aerospace and automotive applications — into valuable, traceable feedstock. The process begins with the digitalization of components, supported by a dedicated 3D Digitalization tool and a digital tool guiding […]
During the last General Meeting of the COMPASS project in The Hague, NSBproject, the partner leading Dissemination and Exploitation, curated the first exploitation workshop, bringing together all project partners. The session focused on strategies to transform research results into actionable and market-ready solutions, ensuring that the project’s innovations effectively contribute to the circular economy. Key […]
