K3RX is a deep-tech spin-off from CNR, founded in 2021 in Imola and setting out to develop and market light compound carbon ceramic materials with extremely high resistance to heat and wear. Applications range through the aerospace, car racing, and energy sectors.

ReFuel Solutions was born out of the urgent need to decarbonize the transport sector for goods and people. A functioning vehicle with a number of years of life remaining cannot simply be scrapped due to the substantial environmental impact of scrapping and the expense of substitution.ReFuel has invented a product for such vehicles, instead adapting them to satisfy the new environmental requirements: BiodieselKit.This innovative technology guarantees maximum exploitation of the potential of biofuels.

SystemItalia offers services for the maintenance of any machine with internal lubrication.In particular, it has developed a machine called MIS - Maintenance Intelligence System - capable of performing online, real-time monitoring of all the main lubricating oil parameters (such as viscosity, temperature, electrical conductivity, relative dielectric constant, percentage of water saturation and size and number of metal particles) without the need for any intervention or for the machinery to be stopped during installation.

Nika operates in the 3D printing sector. The company is distinguished by supplying high resolution colour printing and post-production services including vapour smoothing, prototyping, and creation of nylon technopolymer components.

Cloudvision is an Intelligent Assisted Reality platform with native integration of Unified Communication and Artificial intelligence technologies.It provides contextualized digital support for on-site workers equipped with professional smartglasses or smartphones with internet access.

Alca Integrations develop, produce, and market software solutions and artificial intelligence systems for industrial automation, targeting companies of all sizes.The current project aims to enhance competitiveness and sustainability in the manufacturing sector through the development of new technologies, improving training services, and the implementation of customized solutions.

Development and fine tuning of a device for confinement and reinforcement of beam/pillar junctions in existing structures in SRC constructed in compliance with technical building standards and relative explanatory circular c.s.ll.pp. n. 7. Xnode addresses a B2B target market (engineering offices, building companies) as well as public authorities.

RoboSECT punta ad automatizzare il controllo qualità di quadri elettrici attraverso un test autonomo delle connessioni.

ZENIT's business idea of Smart Polycrystals is based on the production and sale of polycrystals for the solid state laser (SSL) machine market. Existing SSL systems have high manufacturing costs and the machines are heavy and bulky. These laser beams are generated by a single-crystal that heats up locally during laser emission, causing the temporary deformation of the crystalline cell, degrading the quality of the beam and reducing its efficiency.

Overmatic develop innovative solutions for automation in the sheet metal processing sector. The current project involves the introduction of a patented system for automatic tool change over for bending presses, designed to improve efficiency and speed, especially in automated set-ups with robots.

The company provides a B2B service to assist machine manufacturers in the drafting, preservation, and presentation of technical documentation for products released onto the EC market in compliance with the regulations in force regarding health and safety, presenting themselves as an authorized body for the drafting of technical documentation.

Zero3's services include system design, environmental consulting, production feasibility analyses, thermographs and thermographic diagnosis. They offer a product line branded 03 Stabilizer® relevant to decarbonisation, environmental sustainability, and energy transition.
