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.

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.

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.

More efficient and brighter diode lasers thanks to fiber Bragg gratings

With HoverLIGHT, Fraunhofer researchers have developed a composite material that can revolutionize the construction of machine tools.
