+ The commissioning of the Xolography 3D printer "XUBE2" +
The Technical University of Wildau has commissioned the Xolography 3D printer "XUBE²" from Xolo GmbH. This state-of-the-art device was acquired by the AG as part of the state investment program "IiB – Investments in Brandenburg" within the project "Replicator." With this investment, TH Wildau aims to strengthen interdisciplinary collaboration and advance new, groundbreaking projects in the fields of materials engineering, photonics, plastic technology, biosystem technology, and other specialized areas.

+ Visit to the Metallurgy Summer School on Metal Additive Manufacturing in Bertinoro +
Three doctoral candidates from the Microsystems Technology/System Integration WG, led by Andrea Böhme, attended the Metallurgy Summer School on Metal Additive Manufacturing, organized by CoMET in Bertinoro, Italy. This event offers deep insights into the advantages and challenges of metal additive manufacturing. The program covers the state of the art, powder production, part characterization, lectures on specific cases of several industrially relevant alloys, and simulations to predict mechanical properties. The school is primarily aimed at doctoral students in engineering, materials science, physics, and chemistry, as well as technical staff from the industry.
