ACOP – Aachen Center for Optics Production
Create the topics of the future of networking production of optical systems with us
The ACOP Partner Community is an initiative of the Fraunhofer Institute for Production Technology IPT with the intention of promoting cooperation with industry in the field of optics.
It is a continuation and stabilization of the activities of the research project "EverPro - Efficient Networking of Optical Systems", which is being established in parallel to the project duration. "EverPro" is funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) 2014-2020 (project executing agency: Cologne district government; funding reference: 34.1-EFRE-0500061).
The aim of the ACOP Partner Community is to carry out practical R&D projects in the field of digital and physical networking in optics production and to actively identify and implement new development priorities. The focus of the activities is to be on pre-competitive R&D topics that represent a large intersection of the interests of the participating ACOP industrial partners and enable corresponding synergies through multilateral cooperation and mutual exchange.
