The Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Ljubljana in Slovenia is part of the European INTELLASE project, funded by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions and coordinated by KU Leuven in Belgium. Research at the Slovenian university is led by Dr Dominik Kozjek.
The project develops intelligent laser micro- and nanoprocessing, in which artificial intelligence predicts outcomes, monitors the process in real time and adjusts parameters automatically. The aim is to make laser manufacturing more precise, reliable and efficient, with high-quality results on the first attempt.
The consortium brings together eight beneficiaries and twelve associated partners from eight European countries, with a total budget of about €4.3 million, of which more than €500,000 goes to the University of Ljubljana. INTELLASE will train 15 doctoral researchers and strengthen European industrial competitiveness.
