About moi

moi is a Politecnico di Milano's spin-off startup founded on February 2nd 2018.

moi was launched to solve a problem:
Thermosetting composites are one of the best performing class of materials available, unfortunately, traditional manufacturing is still, in these days, expensive and requires a lot of time, especially for small series or unique objects.

moi is the natural result of a research called -Atropos- born inside +LAB, the 3D printing lab of the Politecnico di Milano university focused on exploring the possibility of using thermosetting short, and continuous, fiber composite materials in additive manufacturing.

moi aims to redefine the manufacturing of composites materials exploiting all the potentialities of robotics, artificial intelligence and additive manufacturing.

moi has won 2nd prize at Startcup Lombardia 2018 and qualified for the national finals of the Premio Nazionale Innovazione.

Compasso d'Oro Honourable Mention

Atropos won the honourable mention at the 2018 edition of Compasso d'Oro Award, the most prestigious Italian design Award.

Partnership with COMAU

James Dyson Award Runner-up

Atropos was named 2017 international runner up by James Dyson.

Partnership with Autodesk

In July 2017 we started a partnership with Autodesk to implement stress analysis and optimisation into the workflow. The first case study has been exhibited during Formnext 2017.

JEC Innovation Award Winners

Atropos: Smart Manufacturing of Continuous Fiber Composites, won the JEC Innovation Award 2017 in 3D Printing category, in collaboration with Owens Corning and KUKA.

Partnership with KUKA

On September 2016 we started a partnership with KUKA to liberate the deposition of fibers from the conventional planar sequence and explore a new method of placing and orienting fibers in the three-dimensional space employing custom algorithms with artificial intelligence.

3D printing continuous fiber hybrid composites

Partnership with Owens Corning

We work close with Owens Corning to find the best sizing and characteristics of continuous and short glass fibers and using them in our process.
