To make hydrogen drives suitable for mass production, fuel cell production must become affordable and scalable. The H2GO project is intended to contribute to this.

A new Fraunhofer lighthouse project is investigating how production systems can become more resilient through cooperative behavior. Empathy plays a crucial role in this.

How flushing channels in electrical discharge machining help to increase productivity

The parallel use of lasers is a particular challenge in additive manufacturing. A team at Fraunhofer IPK is developing an innovative solution for this.

Machine tools still set the tone in terms of accuracy. But industrial robots are catching up more and more – thanks to AI, among other things.

Ultra-precision machining is the ultimate in manufacturing technology – it hardly gets any more accurate than this.

Cold spray is considered one of the most modern processes in the field of thermal spraying. A research cooperation has recently equipped Fraunhofer IPK and IWF of TU Berlin with access to a state-of-the-art cold spray manufacturing system.

Existing machines get a futureproof upgrade with artificial intelligence and edge computing.

By combining Scangineering and additive repair technologies, tools or components can be repaired automatically – an exciting field of application for the reverse engineering technology made by Fraunhofer IPK.

Climate-neutral production is indispensable to limit global warming. To make machine tools more energy-efficient, their energy consumption has to be made transparent.
