Fields of expertise
The Joining and Coating Technology division covers five fields of expertise all united in one common commitment: to make joining and coating economically effective and the joints safe and reliable.
Our fields of expertise are:
|
From application of the technique for modification and repair of components to surface cladding to protect against service degradation. |
|
High-speed welding of thick-walled components with excellent gap-bridging capability. Evaluation of welding properties of the material and the production safety of the seam. |
|
Production and evaluation of homogeneous and heterogeneous welding seams in steel and lightweight materials in terms of quality assurance under production-oriented conditions. |
|
From development and evaluation of techniques to construction of demonstrators and prototypes. |
|
From optimization of structure temperature fields and distortion to assessment of the impact of geometric variations on residual stress. |
