Title:
New 3D additive manufacture high capacity nozzle design related to melt blown nonwoven nanofiber materials
Agreement Number:
948831
Agreement Value:
$16,450.00
Agreement Date:
Apr 8, 2020 - Jun 30, 2020
Description:
The project is to design a new modular nanofiber making nozzle (head, manifold, nozzles) to produce melt-blown fabric materials. BIG-nano would design and manufacture the nozzle with the support of Renishaw Canada (Contractor) for 3D additive metal printing technology. The nozzle would then be tested under normal manufacturing conditions to evaluate its performance. Independent certifications on the resulting material(s) would be performed by APC Filtration (Contractor).
