13th Powertrain Manufacturing Conference

Powertrain Production 2020 – Global Networks
New Processes, Resource Efficiency

Today, powertrain manufacturing is characterized by huge innovations with regards to environmental and product safety: The primary motivation being reduction of CO2-emissions and friction, whereby development of new and efficient manufacturing processes for the automotive industry become crucial. Furthermore, new downsizing and hybrid technologies demand new manufacturing processes in order to comply with increasingly strict emission norms. The 13th Powertrain Manufacturing Conference at TU Darmstadt's Institute of Production Management, Technology and Machine Tools (PTW) provides a glimpse into the current and future trends in manufacturing strategies, innovative machine tool concepts and cutting tool solutions for automotive powertrain components. The networking between industry and academic research institutes offer an ideal platform for development of futureoriented products, processes and exchange of ideas.

The goal of the conference is to inform about new manufacturing strategies, innovative machine tool concepts and latest cutting tool solutions. At the same time the conference provides an ideal networking platform for key players of the automotive powertrain manufacturing industry.

Topics of the Conference

• CO2-Reduction
Consequences for Powertrain Manufacturing
• Friction Reduction
New Production Solutions for Powertrain Manufacturing
• Industry 4.0
New Approach for Powertrain Manufacturing?
• New Transmission Generation
Challenges in Manufacturing of Powertrain Components
• New Dimensions in Powertrain Production
Approaches to increase process Stability
• Energy Efficiency
Potentials in Powertrain Manufacturing

Lectures are conducted in English.

Guided tour through PTW machine park
In the evening of the first day of the conference, we will provide a guided tour through the PTW-Lab (Institute of Production Management, Technology and Machine Tools, PTW). Participants of this special event can look forward to an interesting exhibition in the machine park at PTW. Afterwards the conference participants will have the opportunity to network and discuss the impressions of the first conference day.

Industrial Exhibition
The exhibition accompanying the conference is a perfect opportunity for all participants to discuss their specific problems face-to-face with the representatives of the multinational companies. Within the exhibition various suppliers to the automotive industry will present new products and trends.
