Block diagram of Itsaskorda R&D projects:
|
Itsaskorda's range of own products originates in important
R&D activities carried out by the company
since its creation.
90% of the products currently sold by the company derive
from R&D projects implemented with
our own resources.
This constant effort more and more often entails taking
new technologically more complex steps. Always directed
towards the development of new products capable of meeting
concrete market demands. In turn, these products imply developing
new manufacturing processes which are also designed and
set up using internal resources.
Itsaskorda's average annual investment in R&D
equals 10% of its turnover.
These are examples of our most important achievements:
• Combirop: Development of a multi-purpose
product for applications requiring high toughness and elongation
stability.
• Seine: Development of virtual and
real prototypes of a mixed rope usable in the fishing and
industrial sectors, and validation of same.
• Iberoeka Itsasnova: Development
of aquaculture systems based on new advanced mooring and
fixing techniques as well as using new materials and processes,
within a consortium with Chilean companies.
These are the major R&D facilities
available to Itsaskorda:
• Design and simulation platform.
• Development laboratory fitted with product testing
equipment.
• Laboratory wire extruding machine, for developing
new spinning processes.
