The two scientists Michael Ditz and Dr.-Ing. Jan Ditter from the Laboratory for Material and Joining Technology (LWF) under the direction of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Gerson Meschut have developed an evaluation system for users of adhesive bonding technology based on a successfully completed publicly funded project. Their start-up FractureSurfaceTechnologies was founded on March 4th and supports industrial companies in analysing the failure pattern of…
On 15th of February 2021, the KORESIL project started, in which scientists at the LWF in collaboration with project partners from national research are developing concepts for the resource-efficient and safe production of lightweight structures.
The research and development project "Concepts for the resource-efficient and safe production of lightweight structures (KORESIL)", in which socio-technical solutions for process chains with closed material cycles are considered, started at the Laboratory for Materials and Joining Technology (LWF) of the University of Paderborn on 15 February 2021. In addition, this joint project is responsible for the coordination tasks for the national open…
More than 200 participants from industry and research met at the 21st Colloquium "Joint Research in Adhesive Bonding Technology" on March 02 and 03, 2021. Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the colloquium could not take place in Würzburg as planned, but was digitally broadcast as a virtual conference for the first time.
In 2020, despite the challenging situation of the Corona pandemic, the Laboratory of Materials and Joining Technology (LWF) succeeded in setting a new record of third-party funds spent. In comparison, a total of 3.0 million euros was spent in 2017 and in 2020, the third-party funds spent increased to 4.0 million euros.
Leading technologies for the energy revolution - New research project „Concept development of a steel battery housing with special consideration to the joining technology and the corrosion protection (Steel Battery Housing)“
With the collaborative research project METEOR (Methods and technologies for validating and optimizing the resource efficiency of process networks in the production of lightweight structures), a new research project is starting at the Laboratory of materials and joining technology (LWF) at the University of Paderborn.
Detmold, 18 December 2020 - For the 16th time, Jowat is honouring first-class work in adhesives research. The prize, which is awarded every two years, goes to Dr Paulina Sierak in 2020.
The "Technology Symposium for mechanical joining technology" of DVS, EFB and FOSTA has been a fixed date in the joining industry calendar for many years. It was actually planned that the joint colloquium would take place this year in Rostock with the host Fraunhofer IGP. However, the year 2020 has presented us all with enormous challenges against the background of the continuing corona pandemic and so it is unfortunately not yet possible to meet…
Future trends in forming and joining technology
The EuroBLECH Digital Innovation Summit from 27-30 October is a four-day online event with technology showcase, networking and webinars for professionals from the entire technology chain in sheet metal working. As part of this digital EuroBLECH, there will be an EFB webinar on Thursday, 29 October at 15:30 on the subject of Trends for the Future - Forming and Joining Technology.
University research is mainly financed by third-party funding from research associations, foundations, federal and state ministries, either directly or via funding organizations such as the German Federation of Industrial Research Associations (AiF) or the German Research Foundation (DFG), the European Union or industry.
In this sense, the acquisition of third-party funds by professors at a university is often highlighted by universities and…
Knowledge floaters are instructional videos specially developed for digital media that deal with topics from the fields of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, information technology and construction engineering in a clear and memorable way with facts, data and figures. The images, animations and videos shown are audiovisually supported by a readable and spoken text. The creators of the knowledge floaters are experts from theory and…
In a new research project, scientists at the Laboratory for material and joining technology (LWF) are developing an analysis system for evaluating fracture surfaces of bonded joints. Building on a successfully completed publicly funded project, the objectives of the new project are the transfer of knowledge from research to industry by providing a marketable system for users and, in the long term, the company foundation. The start-up is also…
