Centre for Innovation in Manufacturing - Technology Access Centre (CIM-TAC)

制造技术创新中心（CIM-TAC）将在先进设计、设计模拟和原型测试方面创造能力，以提高阿尔伯塔省制造业的竞争力。 通过建立在红鹿学院（RDC）建立的制造业创新中心（CIM）基础上的定制支持，该TAC将帮助创新者设计和测试他们的创造性解决方案，以提高他们公司的盈利能力和能力。红鹿学院的CIM-TAC将通过提供技术专长、技术和设计网络，帮助提高微型、小型和中型制造商（SME）的能力。 RDC CIM作为一个区域性的独特的小批量制造设施已经运营了10年，为中小型和微型公司提供了一个负担得起的替代内部研发的选择。 CIM已经完成了179个行业合同，证明了学院有能力利用其广泛的能力，网络，技术能力和多技能的技术专家，为行业的制造和设计问题提供及时的解决方案。 这些合同中有90%是与符合企业家，微型，中小企业定义的公司签订的。农村客户特别注意到CIM专家的多样化技能、能力和对主要城市中心以外制造业独特挑战的响应能力。 鉴于这种创新和成功的记录，该中心的创新制造-技术访问中心在RDC注定要增长的成功，甚至更多的阿尔伯塔省创新制造商。

The Centre for Innovation in Manufacturing Technology Access Centre (CIM-TAC) will create capacity in advanced design, design simulation, and prototype testing to further the competitiveness of Albertas manufacturing industry. Through customized support which builds on Red Deer Colleges (RDCs) established Center for Innovation in Manufacturing (CIM), this TAC will help innovators design and test their creative solutions to advance their companys profitability and capability. Red Deer College's CIM-TAC will help increase the capacity of micro, small, and medium-sized manufacturers (SME) by providing access to technical expertise, technology, and design networks. RDCs CIM has operated for 10 years as a regionally unique, low volume manufacturing facility providing medium, small, and micro companies with an affordable alternative to in-house research and development. The CIM has completed 179 industry contracts, evidence of the colleges ability to leverage its broad capacities, network, technical capabilities, and multi-skilled technical experts to provide timely solutions to industrys manufacturing and design problems. 90% of these contracts have been with companies that fit the entrepreneur, micro, SME definition. Rural clients especially noted CIM experts for their diverse skill sets, capabilities, and responsiveness to unique challenges associated with manufacturing outside of major urban centers. Given this track record of innovation and success, the Centre for Innovation in Manufacturing - Technology Access Centre at RDC is destined to grow the success of even more of Albertas innovative manufacturers.
