The SIPROS project seeks to develop technologies that enable Basque machinery manufacturers to design and produce ultralight production means that will be productive, sustainable and capable of machining large-volume parts. The aim is to provide manufacturers with the tools they require to access both present and future manufacturing markets in a competitive manner. The project seeks to ensure that machinery manufacturers are capable of satisfying the productivity, quality and reliability requirements of their users, with the minimum amount of material physically possible, since ultralight machines with a minimum mass will result in a chain reduction in all economic and environmental costs associated with the machine´s entire life cycle, drastically reducing both manufacturing overheads and assembly, transport, use, removal and end-of-life disposal costs.
