On November 5, 2019, Dr. Thomas Weißgärber, head of the Dresden Fraunhofer Institute for Manufacturing Technology and Advanced Materials IFAM, signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Korean Hanyang University to promote relations with the application-oriented research unit ERICA (Education-Research-Industry Cluster at Ansan).
The joint research agreement addresses in particular joint activities in the fields of education, research and the promotion of industrial cooperation in Germany and Korea. Examples include joint research programmes, events, lectures and student exchanges.
Fraunhofer IFAM Dresden, one of the leading institutions worldwide in the field of powder metallurgy, conducts basic and applied research for solution-oriented material and technology development for innovative sintered and composite materials, functional materials for energy technology and medical technology as well as cellular metallic materials.
The range of services includes the industrial implementation of research results through to the manufacture of prototype components and their transfer to industrial application. Special technologies such as additive manufacturing (Selective Electron Beam Melting, 3D screen printing, Fused Filament Fabrication), melt spinning, melt extraction, spark plasma sintering and moulding processes support material and component development.
ERICA actively combines teaching and industry. The specialized university unit attaches great importance to the fact that research and industry work hand in hand and that students gain experience in companies during their studies.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
