Huge crowds at the open day
Our guests had the opportunity to get a taste of all areas of research at the Chair: the casters showed how red-hot molten bronze is cast into a medal.
Visitors were also able to experience how large sheet metal components, e.g. for car doors, are produced on the hydraulic 350t press. Our colleagues demonstrated how easily cracks can occur in the sheet metal components during forming. A material test on our tensile testing system clearly illustrated the maximum load that metal sheets can withstand.
The cutting and punching technology researchers demonstrated the function of a mechanical high-speed press and explained the tests we carry out here for the production of electric motors.
It was a great day! We would like to thank everyone who enthusiastically brought production technology research to a wider audience.
