New Infrared Technologies awarded EU prize
New Infrared Technologies
(NIT), a Spanish company specializing
in IR sensor manufacturing technology,
was awarded the Innovation Radar
Prize 2018 in the Industrial & Enabling
Tech category by the European Commission’s
Innovation Radar initiative.
CEO Arturo Baldasano received
the prize from Mariya Gabriel, European
commissioner for digital
economy and society, and Robert
Hofer, Austrian minister for transport,
innovation, and technology.
NIT has brought to the market two
innovative solutions for quality assurance
and process control of laser-based
processes. The first, CLAMIR
(Control for Laser Additive Manufacturing
with Infrared), is based on the
requirements of Industry 4.0 toward a
zero-defect goal. The second, the Horizon
2020 Project MAShES, provides
high-speed monitoring and real-time
control of the manufacturing process.
The Innovation Radar Prize was
created to identify high-potential innovations
and innovators in EU-funded
research and projects. Forty-eight
innovators were selected to compete
for the prize in five categories. The public
voted to select the 20 finalists, and a
panel of judges decided the winners.
