The stand showcased innovative laser processes aimed at improving components in the aerospace sector with Scalmalloy® and in the biomedical sector with Ti6Al4V. Live demonstrations showed how these processes improve critical properties such as fatigue and corrosion resistance in topologically optimised parts.
Visitors to the stand were given a detailed insight into the project's objectives and methodology. CLASCO is coordinated by the Technical University of Dresden and involves collaboration with eleven other consortium partners. CATEC is playing a key role in the project by coordinating, manufacturing and testing, particularly for aerospace applications. Visitors were particularly interested in how these processes enhance fatigue and corrosion resistance in topologically optimised parts, both addresses by CLASCO developments.
The potential improvements that CLASCO promises are exciting, and the collaboration with project consortium members continues.
