PARTNERSHIP & MEMBERSHIP
Distinguished Partners
Complementing our capabilities with our key partners, we are able to succeed and be able to provide the most appropriate innovations to our systems and software.
The commercial success and the sustained recognition of Sensofar have been partly possible thanks to the close collaboration it has maintained with relevant research groups, prestigious universities and important clusters & memberships.
Partnerships
The CCAT (Connecticut Center for Advanced Technology) is a premier manufacturing technology provider equipped with the most advanced assets to support its core focus areas: advanced design, automation, metrology, and additive/hybrid manufacturing of materials (metals, polymers, and fiber-reinforced composites). As a 501c3 organization, CCAT collaborates with large and small technology companies across multiple industries, including Fortune 500 corporations, industrial supply chain companies, federal and state entities, and academia to deliver technical solutions to complex challenges.
The CD6 (Centre for development of sensors, instruments and systems) is a technological innovation center established in 1997 with the aim of fostering the R+D activities in the field of Optical Engineering developed in the Terrassa Campus of the Technical University of Catalonia. The collaboration with CD6 & UPC has been maintained over time resulting in 13 collaboration agreements, and the generation of two patent families. We are also collaborating as teachers within the master’s degree of photonics taught by the university.
As a university of science and technology, ETH Zürich (Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule Zürich) is committed to the study of a diverse range of subjects, which allows knowledge to be shared and combined in original and future-oriented ways. The sixteen departments cover a broad academic spectrum, while all kinds of strategic initiatives, competence centres and networks encourage cross-disciplinary cooperation.
GF (Georg Fischer Ltd) – with its three divisions GF Piping Systems, GF Casting Solutions, and GF Machining Solutions – offers products and solutions that enable the safe transport of liquids and gases, as well as lightweight casting components and high-precision manufacturing technologies. As a sustainability and innovation leader, GF strives to achieve profitable growth while offering superior value to its customers for more than 200 years. Founded in 1802, the Corporation is headquartered in Switzerland and present in 34 countries with 139 companies, 61 of which are production facilities. GF’s 15’111 employees worldwide generated sales of CHF 3’722 million in 2021.
The MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) is a private research university located in Cambridge, Massachusetts. MIT is devoted to the advancement of knowledge and education of students in areas that contribute to or prosper in an environment of science and technology.
Hartford University has guided students’ purpose and passion for over six decades. On its 350-acre campus alongside Connecticut’s capital city, approximately 4,200 undergraduate and 1,800 graduate students representing 47 states and 55 countries are together for a common purpose: to collaborate across different disciplines, diversify perspectives, and broaden worldviews.
PTB (Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt) is the National Metrology Institute of Germany with scientific and technical service tasks. PTB measures with the highest accuracy and reliability – metrology as the core competence. PTB stands for progress and reliability in metrology for the benefit of society, trade and industry, and science. Sensofar maintains close collaboration with PTB providing systems and developing technology for the traceability and design of new metrology standards.
