The proposal for a High Energy X-ray Computed Tomography for Additive Manufacturing, Automotive, Aerospace, & Heavy Industry was submitted to SFI under the 2018 SFI Infrastructure Programme Call.
The Infrastructure Call supports the research community in building and sustaining the required infrastructural capacity to accomplish high quality, high impact and innovative research in areas of science, technology, engineering and mathematics that demonstrably enhance and underpin enterprise competitiveness and societal development in Ireland.
The proposal submitted by Waterford Institute of Technology was reviewed by an international panel of experts and was deemed to be fundable. However, due to the budget available to SFI for the programme, it has been placed on a reserve list until the end of 2020. Should further funding become available to SFI before the end of 2020 this proposal will be considered for funding along with other proposals on the reserve list.
