欧共体研究专员F·M·庞多尔菲最近指出,欧共体正在专门致力于将先进技术用于传统部门,这将大大提高欧洲的竞争力。比如福特公司在英国和西德的制造厂已实验论证用塑料和纤维混合物而不是金属所造成的汽车引擎的主要部件能降低油耗和缩短预热时间。另一些例子是用合成聚合物造成的人工血管能和人的血管共存;能“看”并自动控制工厂产品质量的机器;用于汽车和飞机制造业的金属板熔焊激光器以及一种能从两堆预切材料中举起两块构件并将它们叠放成能迅速组装的状态的柔性装置。上述就是欧共体的欧洲工业技术基础研究与欧洲先进材料研究计划(BRITE/EURAM)的产品。欧共体的另一个计划——埃斯普里特计划(ESPRIT,欧洲信息技术研究开发战略计划)也将于今年夏天开展107个新
FMP Ferdinand, a commissioner of research on the EC, recently pointed out that the EC is working exclusively on the use of advanced technologies in the traditional sector, which will greatly enhance European competitiveness. For example, Ford's manufacturing plants in the UK and West Germany have experimentally demonstrated that the major components of a car engine that result from a combination of plastic and fiber rather than metal can reduce fuel consumption and reduce warm-up time. Other examples are artificial blood vessels made from synthetic polymers that co-exist with human blood vessels; machines that “see” and automatically control the quality of the factory's products; sheet metal welding lasers for the automotive and aircraft industries; Two stacks of pre-cut material to lift the two components and stack them into a state of the rapid assembly of the flexible device. The above is the product of the European Community Basic Research in Industrial Technology and the European Advanced Materials Research Program (BRITE / EURAM). Another EC project, ESPRIT, the European Strategic Plan for Information Technology Research and Development, will also launch 107 new projects this summer
