Green AM through Innovative Beam Shaping and Process Monitoring

TheEuroTech Universities Allianceis a strategic partnership of leading European universities of science and technology:Technical University of Denmark (DTU)École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL)Institut Polytechnique de ParisTechnion - Israel Institute of TechnologyEindhoven University of Technology (TU/e)Technical University of Munich (TUM)The universities join forces to build a strong, sustainable, sovereign, and resilient Europe. The partners bring their excellence in research and education, their active engagement in vibrant eco-systems and service to society. Together, they join forces to accelerate their research in high-tech focus areas and advocate for change, through dedicated partners and a strong presence in Brussels.Based on the EuroTech values, the partners aspire to a new level of cooperation by bringing together their inclusive, diverse and sustainable campuses. The EuroTech Universities create a unique environment for international talents to lead a new generation of change agents in research, entrepreneurship, industry and society.

Tackling global challenges together. A series of scientific online lectures by renowned researchers of EuroTech Universities

EuroTechTalks

The EuroTechTalks are a series of scientific online lectures by renowned researchers of EuroTech Universities. In the Alliance, we tackle global challenges together. This series highlights some outcomes of our scientific collaborations.

Within the EuroTechTalk, Prof. Kizel and Prof. Wudy will present the cutting-edge research they would like to conduct with 8 other partners in the newly funded EU project InShaPe. The overall aim of the InShaPe project is to develop and demonstrate in different industrial use cases (energy, aerospace and automotive) a novel first-time-right Powder Bed Fusion Process of Metals using Laser Beam (PBF-LB/M). The novel PBF process will be underpinned by two technical innovations: (i) the flexible adaptation of laser beam shapes tailored to the material/geometry of the printed parts (enabled by a first-of-a-kind optical module for beam shaping enhanced with AI-techniques to determine the right beam shapes) and; (ii) the multispectral in-line process monitoring and control system (enabled by transferring know-how from the multispectral analysis domain into additive manufacturing). InShaPe will disrupt the manufacturing sector by helping to turn PBF-LB/M from a niche into a mainstream manufacturing technology.AboutThe EuroTechTalks are a series of scientific online lectures by renowned researchers of EuroTech Universities.
