About
Rakel Pacheco Goñi is a researcher at the forefront of advanced manufacturing, specializing in the intersection of robotics, additive manufacturing, and dimensional metrology for high-precision aeronautical applications. Her work focuses on developing automated systems to qualify and produce large-scale components, particularly moulds for composite parts that must withstand extreme thermal and pressure cycles. Pacheco Goñi’s major contributions include the creation of a robotized 3D scanning and alignment method for dimensional qualification of big parts printed by material extrusion, a critical innovation for ensuring that aeronautical moulds meet stringent geometrical tolerances. She also developed the automated MOLDAM robotic system for 3D printing, which streamlines the manufacturing of mould preforms. With her most-cited paper garnering 5 citations and her second 2, her work is gaining traction in the niche but vital field of large-format additive manufacturing. Pacheco Goñi’s achievements demonstrate a clear impact on industrial automation, bridging the gap between thermoplastic material extrusion and the demanding requirements of aerospace production, making her a key contributor to next-generation manufacturing technologies.
