New step for the DESCARTES project: reception of the first prototype tooling of a fuselage frame section
CERO, one of our partners in the project, has designed and produced this first tool that will be implemented on the PINETTE press just commissioned in the IRT Jules Verne. The reception of this first tooling is a key step that will allow to continue the development on the different steps of the process. […]
IRT Jules Verne launches ‘ZEBRA project’ to develop 100% recyclable composite wind turbine blades with industrial partners
Wind energy, both onshore and offshore, plays a critical role in the world’s transition to carbon-free energy sources. With a product lifespan of 30 years and a wind turbine recyclability rate of 85% to 90%, the wind power industry is now looking to close the remaining gap by designing and manufacturing the first 100% recyclable […]
CORONAVIRUS
Because health is our priority, and given the latest strict containment measures taken by French President, IRT Jules Verne adapts its organization. Our priority : to protect our staff and contribute to brake the virus spread while maintaining as much as we can a continuity of our activity. Therefore, all IRT […]
