Last Thursday, 20 February 2025, Prof. Balázs Magyar gave his inaugural lecture as part of the Mechanical Engineering Forum. Among the invited guests were colleagues and former employees. Prof. Magyar was particularly pleased that his former supervisor and friend Dr. Péter Horák had travelled from Hungary to attend the event
After last year's premiere, we are happy to award the CLAAS sponsorship prize again this year. All in all, this was the 19th time fourth semester mechanical engineering students received this award at the Chair of Design and Drive Technolgoy at Paderborn University.
We congratulate Stefan Lammers to the successful completion of his doctoral studies on "Development of a method for the systematic development of design guidelines for a production-oriented support structure design in laser beam melting. Stefan Lammers focussed on the systematic examination and evaluation of support structures for metal-powder based Laser Powder Bed Fusion (PBF-LB/M). Based on the method developed by
We congratulate Thomas Künneke to the successful completion of his doctoral studies on "Methodical development of design guidelines for the design of directly additively manufactured particle dampers from laser beam melting". His research focussed on the respective development of a test stand as well as experimental analyses of
As of September 01, 2024, the KAt Chair is supported by a new scientific research assistant. Xiaoyu Zhang received her M. Sc. in Mechanical Engineering at Paderborn University in March 2024.
The KAt chair has successfully recreated the chair's own research platform ‘KAtAMaran’ (construction and drive technology in AM-optimised modular drive) on a scale of 1:2 as a functional miniature demonstrator ‘KAtA-Mini’. The miniature demonstrator is used as an application example in courses to demonstrate design aspects of
As part of the Machine Elements Drive Components lecture, we invited interested fourth semester mechanical engineering students to an excursion to Claas
