Together with CONTACT Software GmbH, we are developing approaches to integrate industrial energy management into the existing IoT platform CONTACT Elements for IoT.

Generative AI, such as the chatbot ChatGPT, is revolutionizing the way we interact with knowledge. One promising application of this type of generative AI (GenAI) is in the field of corporate knowledge management.

The AIQuAM3D project is a binational applied research and development project between Germany and France. It has a collaborative and industry-oriented approach and aims to establish artificial intelligence (AI) as a tool to support the industrialization of AM technology and to help achieve the democratization and widespread use of SR-µCT by industry. The overall goal of AIQuAM3D is to further develop AI models and tools for quality assurance with respect to their direct applicability in an industrial environment.

We are exploring and shaping future engineering by networking and supporting Advanced Systems Engineering (ASE) activities in academia and industry.

Aerospace-X is a BMWK-funded project for the aviation industry with 14 high-profile partners from industry and research. The goal of the project is to create a collaborative ecosystem for sustainability and circular economy in aviation industry, and to future-proof the supply chains through digitalization and data sovereignty.

The holistic ambidextrous (Latin for "two-handed") approach, which refers to connecting and networking all areas along the value chain, is intended to close gaps for future production systems. To this end, a high level of stability in production must be ensured "on the one hand" and a rapid response to global market turbulence must be guaranteed "on the other hand".

Enhancing Industry 4.0 by integrating biological principles.

In the Catena-X research project, 28 partners from the automotive industry are currently pursuing the vision of a secure and sovereign data ecosystem for all players in the automotive value chain. The collaborative project addresses current challenges facing the automotive industry, such as climate change, resource scarcity, and supply chain resilience.

Researchers at Fraunhofer IPK are developing a new process in which the efficient high-power hybrid laser arc welding can be used in combination with narrow-gap submerged-arc welding to join thick-walled structures.
