We are pleased to present two exciting presentations on this topic: “Potential and Challenges in the Recycling of Aluminum Alloys: A Materials Science Perspective,” by Hanka Becker, OvG University of Magdeburg; and “Repair Welding … A Curse or a Blessing!,” by Claus Männel, Zwickau

Properties of thermochemically heat-treated corrosion-resistant steels for industrial applications. Speaker: Dr. Thomas Waldenmaier, Robert Bosch GmbH, Chairman of the AWT, Stuttgart

Heat Treatment and Machining of Aluminum Automotive Production Parts Speaker: Dr. Dan Dragulin, Hanomag Härtecenter, Hanover Dr. Dan Dragulin, Hanomag Härtecenter, Hanover

Intelligent Material Characterization: Scratch Testing Meets Hardness Testing Speaker: Mr. Lucas Fischer, QATM, Golling, Austria

Plasma nitriding is much more cost-effective than its reputation suggests. An overview of its capabilities and efficiency using real-world examples, Marc Strämke, ELTRO GmbH

The seminar teaches the basics of metallography and explains the relationships between the various structural elements and their properties.

The practical seminar teaches the basics of technical heat treatment and its processes. Participants should gain an understanding of how to select and assess suitable heat treatment processes, recognize the limits and errors and understand the effects on the functionality or failure of components and apply them in practice.
