In cooperation with the Chair of Laser Technology LLT, the Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology ILT offers the opportunity to write a thesis. The Laser Material Deposition (LMD) department at the Fraunhofer ILT works closely with partners from industry and research on the development of process and system technology for laser metal deposition. The EHLA process (extreme high-speed laser cladding) developed and patented at the Fraunhofer ILT increases efficiency and cost-effectiveness through a modified powder feed and is attracting great interest from industry. In order to establish the technology in various industrial applications, further research into process development, digitalization and automation is required. After an interview, the topics can be specialized and tailored to you.
