COMPASS Press Release

January 29, 2024

The press release from the meeting is now available.

The COMPASS project, a collaborative effort among 13 leading European partners, was officially launched with a kick-off meeting held in Steyr, Austria, on January 23-24, 2024.

Funded under the European Union’s HORIZON EUROPE programme, COMPASS aims to revolutionize the remanufacturing of sheet metal and thermoplastic composites, significantly reusing material waste for high-quality components production, and promoting a circular economy approach in the aerospace and automotive industries.

The digital tools developed in COMPASS will make disassembly processes efficient for extracting sheet metal or panels from a decommissioned aircrafts or cars, where relevant component information will be collected and stored in the digital passport during the part’s life-cycle.

In addition, remanufacturing process planning software will also optimize the matching of incoming and outgoing parts for the creation of new products.
