IK4 TEKNIKERResearch Alliance
IK4-TEKNIKER IS A TECHNOLOGY CENTRE MADE UP OF PEOPLE WHOSE VOCATION AND COMMITMENT ARE FOCUSED ON ENHANCING THE INNOVATIVE CAPABILITIES OF THEIR CUSTOMERS AND FURTHERING THEIR TECHNOLOGICAL CAPITAL TO BE MORE COMPETITIVE, ALTHOUGH IN A SUSTAINABLE MANNER, BY PRODUCING AND APPLYING SCIENTIFIC & TECHNICAL KNOWLEDGE.
RESEARCHAREASAREAS
PRODUCT ENGINEERINGThe ultimate purpose of the Product Engineering strategy is to make progress in terms of product concept development and to not only design and develop
its components, both electrical and
mechanical, but also the software. This approach makes it possible to obtain an end product suitable for marketing after undergoing a number of manufacturing processes.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT METHODOLOGY
VALIDATION OF ELECTROCHEMICAL MEASURING TECHNOLOGIES
VALIDATION OF OPTICAL MEASURING TECHNOLOGIES
INCORPORATION OF HETEROGENEOUS TECHNOLOGIES
ADVANCED MANUFACTURINGThe ultimate goal of the Advanced Manufacturing strategy is to focus on more knowledge intensive manufacturing activi-ties associated with a higher added value.
The incorporation of cutting-edge technologies is not only necessary to develop new products and better processes but also to improve design or the brand itself as two of the most critical industrial elements, amongst others, and is one of the relevant areas to be addressed.
CONVENTIONAL AND NON-CONVENTIONAL MANUFACTURING PROCESSES AT A MACRO, MICRO AND NANO SCALE
MECHATRONICS AND PRECISION ENGINEERING
INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION MANAGEMENT
Lithography
Plasma etching
Bonding
Electrodeposition
Conventional Ultraprecision micromachining
MicroEDM and EDM
Laser microprocessing
Microinjection
Laser cladding or Laser Metal Deposition (LMD)
Welding of plastic using laser technology
Thermal and fi nishing surface treatments
Ultrasounds
Chip removal machining
SURFACE ENGINEERINGThe goal of the Surface Engineering strategy is to improve material properties by providing
them with diff erent functionalities. Surface engineering, therefore, does not only embrace deposition or coating technologies but also any kind of physical or chemical modifi cation techniques that do not use fi ller material.

TECHNOLOGICALCSOLUTIONSL THE OBJECTIVE SOUGHT BY TECHNOLOGICAL SOLUTIONS IS TO
ADD VALUE TO THE EXTENSIVE RANGE OFFERED BY IK4-TEKNIKER.
THE KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRED IN SEVERAL RESEARCH AREAS HAS ALLOWED DIFFERENT TECHNOLOGICAL SOLUTIONS TO BE BROUGHT TOGETHER WITHIN THE SCOPE OF AN EXTENSIVE AND INTEGRATED PACKAGE.
The design, development, manufacturing and commissioning of complex mechatronic systems that must operate under very dynamic conditions and require a maximum degree of accuracy under extreme conditions.
Solutions connected to automation, industrial robotics and service robotics that may change according the customer’s capabilities and needs.
Analysis of extensive solutions addressing the conceptual design of the process and/or machine, erection work and commissioning.
Detection, diagnostics and prognostics of malfunctions in conventionally lubricated mechatronic systems to maximise maintenance returns by increasing the availability of assets, extending their life span and reducing operating costs.
