Study in Chemnitz. To know what is good.






Since 2007 the Chair for Micromanufacturing Technology is involved in organizing and conducting the International Symposium on Electrochemical Machining Technology (INSECT).

This international symposium allows engineers and scientists who work in the field of electro-chemical machining to exchange and discuss ideas and experiences. The symposium focuses not only on technical aspects, such as microstructuring of surfaces, technology and machine development, but is also interested in fundamental research in electrochemistry on electrode-boundary surfaces and new materials.

Announcement INSECT 2013
 
     

The ninth International Symposium on Electrochemical Machining Technology will be held on 12th. and 13th. November 2013 in Chemnitz. More informationen will be announced later.

 

INSECT 2012
 
     

The eight International Symposium on Electrochemical Machining Technology 2012 will prospectively be held at the IOS Institute of Advanced Manufacturing Technology in Krakow, organized by Maria Zybura.

More informations will be published soon.

 

History of the Symposium

Seventh International Symposium on Electrochemical Machining Technology
Centre of Electrochemical Surface Technology (CEST), Vienna, 3- 4 November 2011

 

On 3 and 4 November 2011, the INSECT took place at the Museum of Natural History Vienna. During the event, sixty-six scientists participated to report about the latest research findings in the field of electrochemical machining technology. The symposium resulted in an edited volume with nineteen technical contributions (ISBN: 978-3-00-036247-7).
During the second day of the symposium, the participants were also given the opportunity to visit the CEST laboratories.

Sixth International Symposium on Electrochemical Machining Technology
Free University Brussels (Vrije Universiteit Brussel), Brussels, 4- 5 November 2010

 

On 4 and 4 November 2010, INSECT took place at the Free University in Brussels, Belgium. Sixty-six scientists participated to report the latest findings in the field of electrochemical machining technology. The symposium resulted in an edited volume with seventeen technical contributions and a length of 148 pages (ISBN: 978-90-5487-818-6).

Fifth International Symposium on Electrochemical Machining Technology
Fraunhofer Institute for Ceramic Technologies and Systems, Dresden, 26-27 November 2009

 

On 26 and 27 November 2009, INSECT was held at the Fraunhofer IKTS in Dresden. Eighty scientists from ten countries, e.g. from the United States and Nigeria, met to report their latest findings in the field of the electrochemical machining technology. The symposium resulted in an edited volume with sixteen contributions on 130 pages (ISBN: 978-3-8396-0076-4).

Fourth International Symposium on Electrochemical Machining Technology
Fraunhofer-Institute for Machine Tools and Forming Technology IWU, Chemnitz, 25-26 October 2007


eighty-four scientists from fourteen countries, such as the USA, Japan, and India, exchanged their current research findings. At the conference, numerous use-related results were introduced for process and machine developments. The conference also focused on process bases for electrochemical machining as well as on modeling and simulation. The conference was organized by the Fraunhofer IWU and the Chair for Micromanufacturing Technology and resulted in a 176-page long edited volume with twenty-two contributions (ISBN 978-3-00-022770-7). The proceedings of this conference initiate a series on Precision and Microproduction Engineering.
