The LZH develops complete laser system technology with the associated optimized processes. No challenge is too extraordinary - such as Additive Manufacturing in space. At the Hannover Messe from April 17 to 21, the LZH will present its laser systems technology at the joint stand of the State of Lower Saxony from the Ministry of Science and Culture in hall 2, stand A40.
Highly specialized laser system technology for every application area
Additive Manufacturing with lunar dust directly on the earth's satellite - for this goal, the LZH is developing a laser according to strict specifications as well as the associated customized processes to print lunar dust under lunar gravity. The technology and processes that will make 3D printing on the moon possible will be demonstrated by the LZH with an exhibit at the Hannover Messe.
Highly specialized laser system technology is also used in industry. For example, to increase the service life of highly stressed components, such as injection molds, with flexible laser deposition welding, or in lightweight construction, when large areas of thermoplastics can be joined to thermoplastics or metal. At the trade show, the LZH will demonstrate how solutions for very special requirements can also be realized in an industrially suitable manner.
Niedersachsen ADDITIV: The SME partner for 3D printing
Niedersachsen ADDITIV focuses on research transfer. Practical and oriented to the respective needs, the project supports companies that want to integrate 3D printing into their production or develop it further - free of charge and independent of manufacturers. At the Hannover Messe, the experts from Niedersachsen ADDITIV will present their services for companies from Lower Saxony in hall 16 at stand G12 and discuss relevant topics with companies.
LZH partner of the Technology & Business Cooperation Days
The LZH is a partner and co-organizer of the Technology & Business Cooperation Days of the Enterprise Europe Network (een), which take place as part of the Hannover Messe. At the partnering opportunity, companies and research institutions can get in touch with each other, exchange ideas and thus find partners for research and technology cooperation. Registration for the Technology & Business Cooperation Days is free of charge until April 4 at https://technology-business-cooperation-days-2023.b2match.io/.
The LZH is also represented with presentations at the Forum tech transfer: You can find more information here.
Laser Zentrum Hannover e.V. (LZH)
Als unabhängiges gemeinnütziges Forschungsinstitut steht das Laser Zentrum Hannover e.V. (LZH) für innovative Forschung, Entwicklung und Beratung. Das durch das Niedersächsische Ministerium für Wirtschaft, Arbeit, Verkehr und Digitalisierung geförderte LZH widmet sich der selbstlosen Förderung der angewandten Forschung auf dem Gebiet der Photonik und Lasertechnologie. 1986 gegründet arbeiten inzwischen fast 200 Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter am LZH.
Das LZH bietet mit seinen Anwendungen der smarten Photonik Lösungen zu gegenwärtigen und zukünftigen Herausforderungen. Dabei arbeiten Naturwissenschaftler:innen und Ingenieur:innen interdisziplinär zusammen entlang der Prozesskette: von der Komponentenentwicklung für spezifische Lasersysteme oder für Quantentechnologien bis hin zu Prozessentwicklungen für die unterschiedlichsten Laseranwendungen, zum Beispiel für die Medizin- und Agrartechnik oder für den Leichtbau im Automobilsektor. 18 erfolgreiche Ausgründungen sind bis heute aus dem LZH hervorgegangen. Das LZH schafft so einen starken Transfer zwischen grundlagenorientierter Wissenschaft, anwendungsnaher Forschung und Industrie – und nutzt Licht für Innovation.
