The purpose of this CanExport SMEs agreement is to support small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) for activities related to export market development that are part of an export business case for a specific target market, particularly where activities are targeting departmental priority markets and sectors.

The project aims at the development of AI algorithm for classification of weld quality. The goal is to be able to work with the right and optimized tools to have a stable and fast calculation platform to integrate in proprietary laser welding machines.

ICA aims to advance its efforts in the digitization of next generation automation solutions to Canadian Industries. The progression of tech in digital software environments have not been well adapted to industry and ICA is at the leading edge in the digital twin emulation environment. Offering competitive manufacturing solutions to the industry, cost reductions, concept to scale time reduction, production start up time reduction. Our goal is to develop smart components/modules for libraries in simulation to be utilized across multiple studies and Digital Twins for emulation as a product/service. Increasing productivity internally at ICA and overall design capacity which will lead to more sales and growth opportunities

This is an R&D project to test hypotheses and experiment with new mechanisms in order to design a reproducible and scalable commercial process and develop IP in commercial methods.

The purpose of this CanExport Innovation agreement is to support Canadian organizations to carry out activities related to pursuing opportunities that would lead to establishing new collaborative Research and Development (R&D) partnerships between the Recipient and foreign organizations in order to support R&D on the Recipient’s technology and advance its commercialization.
