The Manufacturing Technologies Research Laboratory (MTRL) is focused on different activities related to the manufacturing of mechanical components including process planning, production monitoring and digital support.
The research group has strong competencies on:
- Modeling and simulation of manufacturing process
- Experimental Modal Analysis
- Manufacturing process optimization
- New process development
- Organizational changes in production plant
Currently, the research group is dedicated to the following subjects:


- Mechanical and Metallurgical Analysis
- Design and Manufacturing solution for the aerospace sector
- Implementation of Industry 4.0 solutions
MTRL is involved in many funded reserach projects and collaborate actively with the nearby industrial background to foster the introduction of new technologies and organizational models. MTRL has many industrial collaborations on reserach topics.
MTRL is also a proud member of MTTRF (Machine Tool Technology Research Foundation), that sponsor part of its activities thanks to the loan of top notch equipment.
