The laser materials processing group is conducting basic and applied
research focusing on
process development for advanced manufacturing processes including:
- laser beam welding, particularly for light weight structures
- laser beam brazing, particularly for hybrid structures
- combined processes including hybrid welding
- laser surface treatment e.g. for hardfacing and repair
- laser forming
Research focuses on the scientific investigation of process
behaviour and stability by means of both experimental process
observation and numerical simulation, and on the behaviour of the
processed materials including correlation with the resulting
technological properties.
