De­vel­op­ment and eval­u­ation of ad­vanced weld­ing tech­no­lo­gies for light­weight multi-ma­ter­i­al design with dis­sim­il­ar sheet metals (In­no­join): Dis­sem­in­a­tion of se­lec­ted pro­ject res­ults

From January 2014 to June 2016, the aiF-IGF-cornet-project „Innojoin“ (IGF-Nr.: 00.108 E) has been performed at the LWF. Within the project, five research institutes from Germany and Belgium worked together with the target of investigating the feasibility of different thermal based joining methods for three chosen material combinations in multi-material-design. Finally, the joint properties of all applicable joining methods were compared in an overall benchmark.
Selected project results can be regarded in the manuscript, which can be downloaded here and which will be published within the journal “Schweissen und Schneiden”, soon.
