The Technische Universität Dresden and Fraunhofer IWS are organizing the eleventh International Summer School “Trends and new developments in Laser Technology“ from 29 August to 2 September 2022. This five days workshop aims to bring together undergraduate and PhD students in an intensive study program on fundamental and applied aspects of laser technology.

Experts from industry and research will give an overview of common additive manufacturing processes such as laser powder bed fusion, electron powder bed fusion, cladding, fused filament fabrication and binder jetting with specific reference to the processing of pure copper and copper alloys. Learn about the limits and potentials of additive manufacturing for applications with a focus on high heat transfer and electrical conductivity. 

The workshop will furthermore offer you the opportunity to exchange ideas with other participants in a relaxed atmosphere and to foster close networking between industry and research.

Fraunhofer IFAM's Sinter-based AM workshop series has been a great success so far and is emerging as one of the prime industry meetings on metal binder jetting and further sinter-based AM processes. The international speakers from industry and R&D will provide insight into the latest advancements and industrial implementation of the respective technologies. The workshop program will be supplemented by an expert’s panel discussion and a Component Award competition.

Join the top ceramic specialists at AM Ceramics. Experts ranging from industry to research will present developments in the ceramic process chain, advances in 3D printing and more.

Completed by a guided tour through the Fraunhofer IKTS. In the lab tour, you get insights into Fraunhofer IKTS core competencies from powder development through 3D printing to product quality assurance and beyond.
