Institut Pascal

Institut Pascal is a premier French research institution located in Aubière that advances the field of robotic additive manufacturing. The university laboratory operates a sophisticated ABB IRB 6660 industrial robot arm paired with a 3-axis positioning table for precise multi-axis toolpath control. Their cutting-edge research focuses heavily on fused granular fabrication or pellet-based extrusion for large-scale polymer applications. By exploring process development and experimental robotic fabrication the lab bridges the gap between theoretical science and practical industrial deployment. This academic center actively collaborates with global partners to pioneer sustainable manufacturing methods and next-generation automation technologies.
