PROF. DR.-ING. BALÁZS MAGYAR Von der Theorie in die Praxis und wieder zurück. So beschreibt es die berufliche Laufbahn von Prof. Dr.-Ing. Balázs Magyar gut. Zunächst mit einer Ausbildung zum Maschinenbautechniker begonnen, erweiterte er mit einem Maschinenbaustudium an der TU Budapest sein Wissen. Magyar promovierte über Tribologie von Schneckengetrieben an der TU Kaiserslautern, forschte dann als Juniorprofessor im selben Themengebiet weiter…

Der Lehrstuhl für Konstruktions- und Antriebstechnik stellte etwa 15 Studierenden des Maschinenbaus im Bachelor- oder Masterstudium die Forschung des Lehrstuhls während einer kleinen Informationsveranstaltung vor. Zunächst erfuhren die Studierenden in einem kurzen Vortrag

The KAt was represented at the DMRC booth at the "FVA-Informationstagung" in Würzburg which took place from Dez. 06-07, 2022.

The 6th international conference "Progress on Polymer and Composite Products and Manufacturing Technologies" (Polcom) of the University of Campania "Luigi Vanvitell" and the University Politehnica of Bucharest was held in Bucarest, Romania, from November 23 -25, 2022. The event offered informative insights into current research subjects

The KAt was represented as part of the DMRC booth at the trade fair "Formnext" in Frankfurt which took place from Nov. 15-18, 2022. Interesting conversations with materials manufacturers, plant engineers, operators and software producers in the field of additive manufacturing led to making new contacts and expanding existing ones.

We congratulate Lars Blumenthal to the successful completion of his doctoral studies. In his work "Multidomain-based optimization of axial-dynamic switching performance of spring-applied brakes", Lars Blumenthal researched the multidomain-simulation of spring-applied brakes

Traditions should be cultivated. This is easier with everyone benefitting. The FERCHAU Advancement Award at the Chair of Design and Drive Engineering (KAt) at Paderborn University was granted by the FERCHAU branch Paderborn for the 17th time this year, thus clearly qualifying

After more than 20 years at Paderborn University, Prof. Dr.-Ing. Detmar Zimmer went into his well-deserved retirement on December 31, 2020. The entire team of the Chair wishes you all the best!
