Digitization of production? The laser makes it possible! At this year's Hannover Messe, the LZH presents smart laser-based solutions, not only for agriculture. Also: services for companies from Lower Saxony with an interest in 3D printing.

Digital, interconnected, energy-efficient – smart production with lasers meets the requirements of tomorrow's production. This makes the LZH and its laser-based technical solutions a perfect fit for the key topics at this year's Hannover Messe: There, the focus this year is on digitization and sustainability. The LZH will be exhibiting at the joint stand of the state of Lower Saxony on the topic of digitization in hall 5, stand number D16.

Smart solutions for additive manufacturing and agriculture 4.0
The LZH develops innovative manufacturing methods and focuses on additive manufacturing potential. The vision: smart additive, the interconnected additive manufacturing with process monitoring in real-time. At the stand, the LZH will provide insights into the latest developments in smart additive manufacturing.

In the field of agriculture, the LZH is researching solutions for smart agricultural technology. One important topic here is weed management: The LZH's goal is to reduce the use of pesticides and to eliminate or damage weeds in an environmentally friendly and sustainable way using lasers. The LZH conducts research on the entire process chain from the detection of plants to their elimination. In addition, scientists are working with image capture and artificial intelligence to distinguish weeds from crops reliably. At the trade fair, the LZH will be demonstrating with an exhibit what agricultural technology could look like in the future.
