8.1 Ownership and protection of Knowledge

8.1.1 Knowledge shall be the property of the Party generating it.

8.1.2 Where the Knowledge Information is or incorporates or is intended to be or to incorporate a software technology, a software development or a software product, the Parties agree that each Party may take appropriate actions to protect Software Results developed by such Party under the Project by such rights as are available under such Party's national legal system including without limitation copyright or any other similar statutory right, and to protect such Software Results to the extent reasonably possible as proprietary information.

8.1.3 If, in the course of carrying out work on the Project, a joint invention, design or work is made (and at least two Parties are contributors), and if the features of such joint invention, design or work are such that it is not possible to separate them for the purpose of applying for, obtaining and/or maintaining in force the protection of the relevant intellectual property right, the Parties concerned agree that they may jointly apply to obtain and/or maintain the relevant rights and shall strive to set up amongst themselves appropriate agreements in order to do so as well as in order to determine utilisation’ conditions of such joint invention by each Party to the appropriate separate agreement.

So long as any such rights are in force, the Parties concerned shall be entitled to use, without owing any financial compensation to or requiring the consent of the other Party concerned, and to license such rights, save as otherwise provided for in the appropriate separate agreement .

8.1.4 In the case where a Party (“Originator”) would decide in its sole discretion that it does not intend to seek adequate and effective protection of certain of its Knowledge from the Project, then, the Originator shall inform in writing the other Parties, through the Coordinator, and any Party interested in applying to obtain and maintain such protection shall advise the other Parties, including the Originator, through the Coordinator and in writing within one month of receipt of relevant notice. In the absence of reaction of the other Parties, this Party undertakes to negotiate in good faith with the Originator any appropriate agreement in order to determine utilisation’s conditions of such Knowledge between this Party and the Originator.

In case several Parties are interested in so applying, they shall strive to set up amongst themselves and with the Originator appropriate agreements in order to do so as well as in order to determine utilisation’s conditions of such Knowledge by the interested Parties and the Originator.

The foregoing shall be without prejudice to the Access Rights of all Parties that will remain applicable in accordance with the Clause 8.4 on Access Rights and with the terms and conditions of any appropriate separate agreements negotiated between the interested Parties.

8.2 Publication of knowledge

8.2.1 A Party may not publish Knowledge generated by another Party or any Pre Existing Know How of such other Party, even if such Knowledge or Pre-Existing Know How is amalgamated with such Party’s Knowledge, without the other Party’s prior written approval.

For the avoidance of doubt, for the period of secrecy needed for a successful patent application, there cannot be any publication during such period without prior written approval of the Party owner of the Knowledge.

8.2.2 A Party shall provide the other Parties with a 30-day prior notice of any planned publication on its Knowledge and, if requested, with copy of relevant publication data. Adequate publication references shall be given in the publication.

Unless it has granted prior written publication approval, any Party may object to the publication within fifteen calendar days from receipt of the data, if it considers and can reasonably show that the protection of its own Knowledge could thereby be adversely affected.

Objection shall be made to the issuing Party, with a copy to all the other Parties. An objecting Party shall use its reasonable endeavours to make suggestions for modifications that would, if adopted, make the publication or communication possible.

8.3 Dissemination of Knowledge after the end of the Project

If dissemination of Knowledge does not adversely affect its protection or use and subject to legitimate interests, the Parties shall ensure further dissemination of their own Knowledge as provided under this Agreement.

8.4 Access Rights in the scope of the Project or outside the scope of the Project

8.4.1 Each Party shall take appropriate measures to ensure that it can grant Access Rights and fulfil the obligations under the Contract and this Agreement notwithstanding any rights of its employees, or any person it assigns or engages to perform its own task for the Project.

The Parties agree that Access Rights are granted on a non-exclusive and a non transferable basis.

The Parties also agree that, if not otherwise provided in this Agreement or granted by the owner of the Knowledge or Pre Existing Know-how in an appropriate separate agreement, the Access Rights shall not include the right to grant sub-licenses, except for the Affiliates.

8.4.2 Access Rights in the scope of the Project: The Parties agree that the Access Rights on the Pre-Existing Know-How and on the Knowledge needed for carrying out the Project shall be granted on a royalty-free basis only for the purpose of the carrying out of the Project.

8.4.3 Access Rights out of the scope of the Project for use of a Party’s own Knowledge: the Party holding the Knowledge (and/or Pre-Existing Know-How) undertakes to negotiate in good faith with another Party, any appropriate separate agreement to organise Access Rights’ conditions of the latter to its Knowledge (and Pre-Existing Know-How)

• Save as otherwise provided for in this Agreement or in a separate agreement between the interested Parties, the Parties agree that the Access Rights on the Pre-Existing Know-How needed for Use of a Party’s own Knowledge shall be granted on fair and non-discriminatory market conditions. In any case, the Party holding the Pre-Existing Know-How undertakes to negotiate any access rights to its Pre-Existing Know-How and associated intellectual property rights, at conditions at least equivalent to the most favourable conditions negotiated with other partners and or co-contractors.

• Save as otherwise provided for in this Agreement or in a separate agreement between the interested Parties, the Parties agree that the Access Rights on the Knowledge needed for Use of another Party’s own Knowledge shall be negotiated in good faith, at conditions at least equivalent to the most favourable conditions negotiated by the Party holding the Knowledge with other partners and or co- contractors.

8.4.4 In the event that the Parties fail to commercially exploit their Knowledge within three years from the completion of the Project, the owners of any intellectual property rights in the Knowledge shall make such technology available for licensing to third parties, the benefits from such licensing being shared between the Parties to this Agreement on a basis which shall be fair and reasonable having regard to all the circumstances, including the relative financial, technical and commercial contributions made by the Parties to this Agreement.

8.4.5 Should a Party reasonably believe that, without Access Rights on another Party’s Pre- Existing Know-How or Knowledge, the performance of its own task for the Project or the Use of its own Knowledge resulting from the Project would be technically impossible or significantly delayed, such Party shall then promptly request in writing Access Rights from said other Party, identify the extent of the Access Rights and provide reasonable evidence on its needs. Any Party undertakes to negotiate in good faith the Access Rights’ conditions of any other Party requesting Access Rights, in the abovementioned scopes.

8.5 Affiliates Access Rights

Each Party hereby grants Access Rights to all Affiliates of the Parties as if such Affiliates were parties hereto, provided that such Affiliates fulfil all confidentiality and other obligations of the Parties under the Contract and this Agreement.

Upon a company not being an Affiliated Company of a Party to this Agreement, as per the definition of Affiliated Company of the “REGULATIONS : Overview for SMART Project Proposers” :

- All Access Rights granted to such Affiliate in respect of Knowledge or Pre-existing Know- How shall lapse, provided however that, except as otherwise agreed by the relevant Parties, any Knowledge which has been incorporated into the products or services of said Affiliate or which has been amalgamated with said Affiliate's own information may continue to be used (exclusively in the manner it was used upon such date) by said Affiliate under a non exclusive license agreement to be negotiated with the relevant Party(ies), upon such ex Affiliate’s written request, provided however that no Legitimate Interests of such Party(ies) oppose the grant of such licenses.

- All Access Rights granted by such Affiliate hereunder shall continue in full force and effect.

8.6 Software

8.6.1 The Parties agree that Access Rights (under all the rules herein defined) when applying to Software do not comprise access to Source Code but only to Object Code, unless otherwise expressly provided herein below.

8.6.2 For Software, which is either Pre-Existing Know-How or Knowledge, the Parties also agree that they shall have Limited Source Code Access for carrying out their tasks under the Project but they shall not have any access to Source Code for Use.

8.6.3 Limited Source Code Access shall mean Source Code access (i.e. access to Source Code (as available from the Contractor granting such access) and also to Software Documentation), provided in any case that an API including Software Documentation for the respective Software is not available; and also that use of the Software in Object Code form alone is not meaningful.

WARRANTY / LIABILITY

9.1 In supplying any information or materials to any of the other Parties each Party undertakes to use all reasonable endeavours to ensure the accuracy thereof and (in the event of any error therein) promptly on being notified to correct the same, but the supplying Party shall be under no further obligation or liability in respect of the same, and no warranty condition or representation of any kind is made, given or to be implied as to the sufficiency, accuracy or fitness for purpose of such information or materials.

Objectives:

The expected results for this Subproject are:

• LMD set of parameters: A database including full set of parameters for the selected materials. The database will include the process parameters and the final results of the LMD process (width and height of the tracks, material deposition rate, hardness, HAZ,…)

• Machining of deposited structures: The deposited materials will be machined using specific cutting tools and conditions. The results will be a full guideline for the machining of deposited material, including cutting conditions, tool wear, part surface integrity, material hardness and structural analysis,…

• Manufacturing strategies for the fabrication of complex features, including internal cavities. The strategies will be included in the CAM system in WP4

• Definition of the necessary system for the cutting fluid filtering, laser protection and powder exhaust system. The machine tool must fulfill the EU standards and safety regulations to operate in an open workshop.

• Analysis of the machine tool performance and accuracy during the combination of AM and machining processes.

Description of the work (tasks level):

The pillar of this workpackage will be the hybrid process development, including the machine tool setup, the main process parameters definition for both AM and machining processes and the integration of the hybrid process into the tooling manufacturing industry. The workpackage will be coordinated by XXXXXXX. IBARMIA has previous experience in the development of hybrid machine tools and process integration. Modulewoks and HKS Forge will also take part in the analysis of strategies, part quality, material properties,... Thus, the workpackage will start with the development of an intelligent database of the additive manufacturing process via LMD for the selected materials in WP1 and the evaluation of the deposited material quality.

The workpackage also includes the evaluation and setup of the chip removal process of the deposited material via LMD. The study will include not only the parameter setup and cutting tool definition, but also the evaluation of thermally induced cracks and distortions, stress relief after the LMD process and the subsequent machining, influence of the HAZ in the heat treatment and machining performance,… This task will include also the strategy definition for the manufacturing of internal cavities or very complex features using the simultaneous combination of AM and machining operations.

Finally, the workpackage will tackle the full integration of LMD technology and machining for the tooling industry, considering some operational problems of hybrid machines such as metal powder & chip management into the machine, definition of the cutting fluid systems and filters to avoid stacking because residual powder, specific safety considerations as laser reflection isolation, powder evacuation, O2 detectors… In addition, the analysis will also include a machine tool performance evaluation including the durability of the guidance systems and bearings because of the presence of metal powder. Finally, the effect of the laser as a heat source in the precision of a Machine Tool will be also measured. The accuracy of the machine will be measured processing the same part using conventional machining and building the part by the combination of AM and machining options. The differences between both parts can be attributed to the heating and distortion of the machine tool during the LMD process.

Task 2.1: Experimental study of the hybrid (LMD+machining) process for the generation of a process database. Task 2.2: Analysis of the machinability of the deposited material.

Task 2.3: Evaluation of the influence of the cutting fluid on LMD operations. Task 2.4: Experimental analysis of the accuracy of the hybrid machine-tool.

Objectives:

The expected results for this Subproject are:

• A CAM module for the hybrid manufacturing process, including both LMD and machining operations.

• A set of specific strategies for LMD processing for tooling, considering the optimum LMD strategies defined in WP2.

• A common interface between the 3D measurement system, developed in WP3, and the CAD module.

• A CAE module for the deposited geometry estimation as a function of the process parameters.

Description of the work (tasks level):

One of the main weak points of hybrid manufacturing systems is the need of specific CAM software to operate with AM and machining processes. In order to face this aspect, the project includes a workpackage based on the development and implementation of a CAM/CAE software that can calculate the toolpaths for the LMD operation and program the hybrid machining with the same capabilities as other CAM software. The WP starts with a definition and development of specific strategies for LMD and machining combination in the tooling industry. These strategies have been previously tested and defined manually in WP2, so the aim of this task is to implement them including a parametric definition of the strategies.

The WP includes also a validation of these strategies in the hybrid machine, redefining possible details and including missed parameters.

A common interface between the CAD/CAM module and the 3D vision system developed in the WP3 will be also included, in order to define the geometries and include this data into the CAM module.

Finally, the CAM module will include also a Programming module for machining trajectories, including multi-axis milling operations. Regarding to the CAE module, the development will be focused on the estimation of the deposited material geometry considering the process parameters. The functional value of this module is to estimate the deposited geometry and include as a solid body for the last

machining operation. One of the most relevant parameters for this capability is to know the deposited geometry.

Task 3.1: CAM module development for hybrid manufacturing process. Task 3.2: Specific strategies implementation into the CAM module

Task 3.3: Integration of the 3D measurement data into the CAD module Task 3.4: CAE module definition for the simulation of the hybrid process.

Objectives:

The expected results for this subproject are:

• The implementation of a series of sensors for the LMD process monitoring, including the continuous measuring of the melt- pool geometry and temperature.

• Signal and data analysis from different LMD tests, including the development of control algorithms to correlate experimental events with the measured signals.

• Closed-loop control algorithm to set the laser power as a function of the measured temperature.

• Definition of a 3D measurement system to perform in-machine complete measurements of the deposited materials. The system will include a software for the 3D measurement representation.

Description of the work (tasks level):

The workpackage is based on the definition and implementation of a full set of control and monitoring systems for the hybrid manufacturing process. This workpackage will include starting with the selection and integration of sensors for on-line monitoring of the hybrid process. Due to the nature of process, the monitoring system will place special emphasis on the Laser Material Deposition process. The monitoring system will include a temperature sensor, in order to adapt the laser power to different conditions and features, avoiding local defects induced by the lower thermal inertia at the part corners and edges. Thus, once the sensors for monitoring the process are selected, an analysis of different signals will be carried out, in order to obtain process responses and correlations between process parameters and monitored data. This task includes also the definition and implementation of control algorithms in order to use the monitoring data for the process optimization.

Once the control algorithms are developed, a closed-loop control of the LMD process will be implemented in order to set the laser power as a function of the temperature,. These type of controls are very commonly used in other processes such as laser hardening, however, the Laser Material Deposition process presents the high challenge of the powder injection and the difficulty of measuring the temperature of the melt-pool. Project partners have previous experience on the melt-pool monitoring, so it will be used to tackle this task and include a closed-loop system for the LMD process control.

Finally, the task also includes a selection, integration and calibration of a 3D vision system, in order to evaluate the geometry deposited material inside the same machine and provide data to the machining operation. The 3D analysis includes also the development of a software for 3D measurement of the deposited material, which can also be used for the definition of patches and areas that must be repaired.

Objectives:

The expected results for this Subproject are:

• Manufacturing of Test part I & II.

• Analysis of the process capabilities, including new features such as tailored materials or complex structures made by AM.

• A cost evaluation, including a full analytic budget of the main cost contributors such as raw materials, machine tool payback, energy consumption...

Description of the work (tasks level):

This workpackage includes a final validation of the project development. The developed process, including WP2, WP3 and WP4 efforts will be used to define and manufacture two test parts. The test parts will be the previously defined in WP1, which should include the selected materials and features to be manufactured. The validation of the full process includes the definition of the manufacturing procedure, strategies, CAM programming, CAE simulation and process setup. The process will include the sensing and monitoring approach defined in WP3 and programmed with the specifically developed CAM module.

The resulting test parts will be measured and analyzed, including a material structure complete analysis, porosity, cracks and distortions, hardness, etc. Moreover, the test part validation will be also used for a cost evaluation and the global economic issues will be also considered, including energy consumption, wasted material, environmental impact, and cost of raw materials, pre- and post- processes required for achieving the final part… All of these considerations will be compared with the conventional manufacturing procedure in order to determine the competitiveness increment and the cost addition of new functionalities such as tailored material combination or internal complex cavities.
