Important results from the project

The project met the set objective by a wide margin. We have made achievements in several areas that have contributed in various ways to making our product possible to design and build. It concerns two areas: Understanding the curing process of the adhesive and its possibilities/limitations beyond what was previously data on. Development of Modvion´s construction processes, the project has contributed to taking processes from prototype to something that can be used industrially and be scalable.

Expected long term effects

The project has contributed to Modvion having an attractive product. Great progress has been made in jointing technology for wooden elements, hopefully these can be transferred to some extent to other markets such as the construction sector.

Approach and implementation

The project has been conducted in three different areas: -Accredited testing of the properties of the glue in different climates. -Development and certification of a new faster glue. -Development of methods and equipment for erecting wooden wind turbine towers. Detailed planning of all tests has taken place during the journey in order to be able to use the results in early tests and build on them. RISE lacks accreditation for certain tests and therefore Fraunhofer/WKI in Germany was contracted
