Duo hoping to strengthen microelectronics innovation
Research institute of CEA Tech in Grenoble, France,Leti,and the Berlin-based Fraunhofer Group for Microelectronics, Europe's largest R&D provider of smart systems, will initially focus on extending CMOS and More-than-Moore technologies to enable next-gen components for applications in the Internet of Things, augmented reality, automotive, health, aeronautics and other sectors, as well as systems to support French and German industries.
Additive proven to reduce hydrogen wear of metals
Originally designed for fuel saving, Nanol’s additive now enters completely new areas of use.The renowned Fraunhofer independent research institute in Germany has demonstrated that Nanol’s lubricant additive has some completely new performance features. The patented lubrication additive, based on nano technology, was originally developed for fuel saving and wear protection in marine engines and industrial applications.
Photonics solutions set to light up classical manufacturing
In Germany, 64%of industrial managers anticipate that light tools will revolutionise classical manufacturing. Half of them go so far as to assume that photonics solutions will largely replace mechanical material processing in the traditional manufacturing sectors. Industry experts believe that 'Made in Germany' photonics solutions are a key role in this development. These are findings from the Messe München LASER World of PHOTONICS trend ind...
EMO Hannover to provide a window for production operations of tomorrow
New approaches for strengthening mutual feedback between the academic and business communities will be explored at EMO Hannover 2017, taking place 18-23rd Spetember in Germany.In line with the EMO’s motto of ‘Connecting systems for intelligent production’, the German Machine Tool Builders’ Association (VDW) is therefore organising the Industry 4.0 Special Show area, on which Fraunhofer and university-affiliated research in...
Photonics brought to life at Make Light MAKEATHON
LASER World of PHOTONICS, which took place from 27th to 28th June 2017, hosted the first Make Light MAKEATHON. 78 students and young engineers from five countries took part in the event. The talented youngsters developed a product from idea to prototype within 24 hours in the midst of the trade fair action. Messe München had already been the venue of Europe’s first Makeathon at the AUTOMATICA Robotics trade fair a year ago.
Lifetime prediction for ICs in all design environments
Fraunhofer IIS/EAS is offering advanced modelling services for device degradation effects in North America. Using these proprietary techniques, designers are now able to verify the long-term behaviour of ICs and systems especially in safety critical applications. Compared to today’s solutions, the advanced models can be used in all common industrial design environments. In addition to standard degradation effects, Fraunhofer also takes into...
'Learn from the Best' at ETC 2017
The full agenda for the ninth European Altair Technology Conference (ATC) has been announced by Altair. The conference will be held at the Congressforum in Frankenthal, Germany, from 26th to 28th June 2017. The first day of the conference on 26th June will offer insights into product development solutions for engineering domains such as mechanical, fluid, additive manufacturing, electromagnetics and system simulation with in-depth information on ...
A window on the production operations of tomorrow
This year at EMO Hannover, a big focus will be on exploring new approaches for strengthening mutual feedback between the academic and business communities.In line with the EMO’s motto of ‘Connecting systems for intelligent production’, the German Machine Tool Builders’ Association (VDW) is organising the Industry 4.0 special show area, on which Fraunhofer and university-affiliated research institutes of the German Academic...
Project aims to provide large-scale hydrogen technology
A project sponsored by the Federal Government and the state of Saxony-Anhalt, HYPOS, is a network of companies and research institutions based in Halle (Saale) in the German federal state of Saxony-Anhalt. It studies the use of power from renewable energies for the production of hydrogen. The aim is to become less dependent on petroleum and other fossil energy sources. The chemical process is not new. HYPOS is working with its 114 members, includ...
Interaction components for contactless human-machine operation
Presenting its gesture control expertise, the Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute HHI will be at this year’s HANNOVER MESSE trade fair.At the Fraunhofer booth C22 in hall 2, the institute is presenting the EASY COHMO project (ergonomics assistance systems for contactless human-machine operation) aimed at overcoming the problems of human-robot interaction and cooperation.
