The DLR's Safe Light Regional Vehicle (SLRV) is characterized by a very light and, at the same time, particularly safe body made of sandwich materials.

A supplier of software presents a comprehensive toolbox of new capabilities for the optimization of casting designs, tooling layouts and robust production processes.

Engineering simulation must become a part of the toolbox for every engineer, every product and throughout the entire life cycle.

More than 1 million Lego Technic parts, 13,438 working hours, 5.3 hp, 92 Nm and a top speed of almost 20 km/h: The Bugatti Chiron as original-sized Lego model.

Positive results after the test phase (from left): Armin Oswald (Bedrunka + Hirth), Sönke Schlüter (Lehmann), Marcel Dichtler (Oskar Frech) and Dieter Grannemann (Goldin).

The series production of Audi’s electric drives has officially started in Györ. On a surface of 8,500 square meters, electric motors are produced by means of a novel approach: modular assembly.

Professional design tips that help achieve better results of the SLM process.

Some new innovations for die casting tools are presented by Strack Norma.

In the case of the wheel carrier, the models for investment casting were manufactured additively, thus combining the advantages of both processes, the design freedom of 3D printing and the series suitability of casting.

The DLR's Safe Light Regional Vehicle (SLRV) is characterized by a very light and, at the same time, particularly safe body made of sandwich materials.

Jochen Kress: "We can solve the mechanical requirements of e-mobility with our own resources".

Metal casting porosity can affect the part’s structural integrity, creating a failure point.

Digitization not only determines production but also the way in which the designer will work in the future.

The Pilatus Super Versatile Jet PC-24 will be used as a business aircraft, for rescue flights or for transport. Order intake is rising continuously, and new capacities have been created for the machining of large parts.

In future, the interiors of vehicles will be completely different, as the passengers no longer necessarily sit upright oriented in the direction of travel, but travel from A to B comfortably in a lying position or reading. New concepts and materials are required to protect the occupants in the event of a braking maneuver or a crash.
