WOT excursion to Scholz Recycling GmbH
On 16 September 2023, the employees of the WOT professorship were able to visit Scholz GmbH together at one of its largest processing sites in Espenhain near Leipzig. We spent three hours on site and learnt first-hand about the challenges and physical limits of separating and recycling scrap. The highlight was the guided tour of the company premises, where we experienced the impressive processes involved in handling and processing several hundred thousand tonnes of scrap every year.

Interdisciplinary DFG project „Method and model development for the simulation of layer thickness distributions on complex shaped components during galvanic layer deposition“
For over a year now, a project at the WOT professorship has been working on using numerical process simulation to minimise both costs and experimental expenses in the optimisation of real galvanic processes. The project is funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) (project number 524933028).

Materials Day 2024
After the great interest last year, the Institute of Materials Science and Engineering (IWW) once again organised the "Day of Materials" on 4 June 2024 in sunny weather. With numerous activities and demonstrations, students interested in materials were invited on a varied journey into the world of materials by the institute's staff.

Professorship WOT represented at the Südwestfälischer Oberflächentag with a lecture on „Human-centred digitalisation and artificial intelligence“
On 27 June 2024, the South Westphalian Surface Day took place for the 13th time at the SIHK in Hagen. The event, which was well attended by around 75 participants from the electroplating industry, featured five presentations on the topics of digitalisation, artificial intelligence, electromobility, fire protection and energy efficiency.

GIGA – Green and intelligent electroplating for the supply of relevant aircraft components based on modular, robot-based electroplating with inline process monitoring
On 9 July 2024, the LuFo project GIGA started with a successful kick-off meeting at Chemnitz University of Technology. The project aims to develop a green and intelligent electroplating process using modular, robot-based electroplating with inline process monitoring. This enables safe and reproducible coating of relevant aircraft components in small and medium batch sizes. The project is supported and funded by the German Aerospace Centre (DLR) and the Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection (BMWK).
