Issue Highlights:
Implementation of new mounting conceptsfor mechatronics using cold-gas-sprayed coats
Within the framework of the presented project, new mounting concepts for power electronics were implemented by applying Al/Cu coat systems to insulators by means of cold gas spraying (CGS). Fabrication technologies for t...
Influence of the carbide feedstock size on the tribologicalcharacteristics of rolled and ground FTCFeCSiMncoatings
The tribological properties of thermally sprayed coats are highly dependent on the utilised spraying processes, parameters and the feedstock material. In addition to the chemical composition of the feedstock, the wear re...
Forming of thermally coated sheets forthe production of plastic-metal hybrids withpositive-locking joints
Light-weight, cost-favourable and high-strength hybrid components can be produced by combining metal and plastic materials in one component. The integrated forming of the sheet in the injection moulding tool using the pr...
