(English language) The ambitions of the two engineers-entrepreneurs Noël Deferm and Tom Redant of start-up Hammer-IMS are (rightly) big: '"We want to make our non-nuclear millimeter waves based technology the golden standard in our application domains. The market is ready, because "Europe discourages the use of today's nuclear measuring equipment".
Corda Campus Hasselt – On June 10, Hammer-IMS welcomed around 70 guests in the PhiliCorda room to celebrate the launch of the new spin-off. During the event, Noël Deferm (general manager) and Tom Redant (technical & product manager) unveiled their plans for their non-nuclear Marveloc measurement technology, which is based on millimeter waves. Following their presentation, Professor Patrick Reynaert (KU Leuven), Kurt Hensen (CEO of T&M Solutions, now Averna), and Lieven De Jonge (Head of Smart Manufacturing, LRM) addressed the attendees. Both founders developed new systems for measuring thickness and weight in production lines, which are currently being tested by international producers of paper, plastic sheets and films, composites, textiles, glass wool, and other materials.
