Der Lehrstuhl für Konstruktions- und Antriebstechnik (KAt) hat seine Forschungsplattform „KAtAMaran“ im Maßstab 1:2 als funktionsfähigen Miniaturdemonstrator nachgebaut. Mit dem „KAtAMini“ können nun theoretische Inhalte der Lehrveranstaltungen direkt an einem realen System vermittelt werden – mobil, praxisnah und anschaulich.

Wir freuen uns sehr, auch in diesem Jahr wieder den CLAAS Förderpreis vergeben zu können. In enger Zusammenarbeit mit der CLAAS Gruppe fand die Auszeichnung bereits zum dritten Mal statt –

Wir sind stolz darauf, dass unser Lehrstuhleiter, Herr Magyar, am 25.09.2025 im Rahmen der Herbsttagung der Wissenschaftlichen Gesellschaft für Produktentwicklung (WiGeP)

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.
