Technologies

Fraunhofer IAPT offers a wide range of technologies and facilities in the field of additive manufacturing and laser technology. Depending on the component requirements, we can always select the appropriate production technology and corresponding facility. This applies to both the metal and plastic sectors. From Laser Beam Melting (LBM) for delicate medical implants to Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM) for large structures, and laser hybrid joining of components produced by different methods, we can select suitable processes for your specific requirements. Our portfolio of technologies and facilities is regularly expanded. We strive to provide our customers with the best solution for their application, regardless of the technology or manufacturer. Some of the procedures and equipment available to us are listed below.
