Parker improves the monitoring and control of complex hydraulic systems with the new SensoControl Converter Box for the Parker Service Master Connect

With synchrotron radiation, welding processes can be observed in detail like never before – live and in real-time! Researchers from the Fraunhofer ILT and the RWTH Aachen – Chair of Laser Technology are working at DESY to make steam bubbles, melting movements, and defects visible. Their findings optimize battery and microelectronics production and pave the way for new materials.

KYOCERA Fineceramics Europe GmbH now offers the production technology 'Ceramic Additive Manufacturing' in Europe. The process enables the production of complex geometries and almost any custom shapes. Additionally, prototypes can be created very quickly, allowing production to ramp up to thousands of pieces per week in a short time.

New paths in battery manufacturing from raw material processing to recycling

Efficiently coating brake discs – and complying with the EURO-7 regulations

With the lecture program on three stages, Formnext has created an internationally recognized focus in its supporting program and will continue the successful multistage concept in 2025.

Researchers from the Fraunhofer Institute for Structural Durability and System Reliability LBF present at HANNOVER MESSE how AI-based image recognition works under challenging conditions.

German mechanical engineering often operates completely outdated painting systems or relies on external contract coaters. To increase flexibility, efficiency, and resilience, the industry should invest in future-proof systems.

In the VibroDraw process, Fraunhofer IWU, together with MARK Metallwarenfabrik GmbH and DEVAD GmbH, has succeeded in effectively coupling ultrasonic vibrations into industrially relevant deep drawing processes with cycle rates of up to 500 strokes per minute.
