European Tooling Platform (MANUFUTURE)
Tooling: INFRASTRUCTURAL INDUSTRY
A cross-sectoral industry embedding key knowledge, linking product
development to production and innovation to industrialization and
competitiveness
European Tooling Platform (MANUFUTURE)
Tooling: Main Challenges
 Tooling Industry is an European Infra-structure supporting Product Development;
 INNOVATION is the key point on TOOLING to support Global Markets / Clients;
 Continuous TRAINNING is a must to maintain the leverage of knowledge within the
most advanced fields (on materials and technologies applications);
 QUALIFIED JOBS are promoted continuously in the Tooling companies;
 New ENTERPRENEURSHIPS are rising from Tooling Front Edge main areas
(Micromanufacturing, Robotics, Handling, Virtual Design, Clean Tech, etc);
 TOOLING is a NETWORK INDUSTRY (involving Industry & Academia)
 RESEARCH / DEVELOPMENT / PILOT LINES, are fundamental to reinforce the
European Tooling Competitiveness;
