Industrial manufacturing needs to be competitive to persist, often on a global market. Competitive products often demand the edge in manufacturing technology. This is certainly the case with lightweight materials, like fibre reinforced composites and light alloys.
The properties of these materials are closely related to the way they are manufactured. The understanding of this relation is therefore essential in a successful engineering design using these materials.
Research in the Production Technology group addresses the engineering issues of new processes related to lightweight materials, and their related performances. This means that the research topics cover the whole lifetime of a product.
