Affordable medicine, rising energy costs, and dependence on strategic raw-material sources make new materials central to many questions. Traditional materials development is time-consuming and often takes years. Fraunhofer ISC is therefore pursuing accelerated development approaches - “Materials Acc…
From Engineer-to-Order to Configure-to-Order Plus
In 2024, ABN Cleanroom Technology redefined the cleanroom industry by introducing ADAPTUS, the world's first product platform strategy for cleanroom engineering. By organizing critical cleanroom components into pre-engineered and validated building bl…
In the FINAT Label Competition 2026, Schreiner Group has once again been recognized for its innovative prowess in the field of functional marking solutions. The awards went to a highly transparent seal with an integrated digital authentication function from Schreiner MediPharm – which was named grou…
– Researchers have developed a design principle enabling the creation of complex patterns on silicon chips by way of microfabrication.
– Thanks to these patterns, vibrations follow predetermined paths.
– A material structured in this manner could harvest energy from vibrations or process signals witho…
Highly sensitive light sensors are needed, among other applications, in quantum communication, medical technology, and autonomous driving. Researchers at the Institute for Semiconductor Technology (IHT) at the University of Stuttgart have developed a photodetector based on germanium, which is more c…
New sensor technology measures critical chemicals directly in the running process and helps semiconductor manufacturers detect process deviations earlier, reduce (lab) effort and run wet processes more stably.
In semiconductor manufacturing, reliable, controlled wet processes determine yield, quality…
The Graz-based engineering firm Lorenz Consult has handed over the new construction for a research and development site with approximately 26,000 m² gross floor area in the Seestadt Aspern in Vienna to the client. As the general planner, Lorenz Consult has been responsible since October 2021 for ove…
In GMP-compliant cleanroom production, the highest accuracy, purity, and safety are top priorities. Nevertheless, many documentation processes and labeling requirements are still carried out on paper—and thus remain susceptible to errors and inconsistencies. An increasing number of pharmaceutical ma…
To deploy humanoid robots in industrial applications, they must meet application-relevant criteria. Fraunhofer IPA has developed a benchmark for this purpose. This allows manufacturers and end users to have humanoid robots analyzied by an independent third party for energy efficiency, cleanroom comp…
Caverion Germany will acquire Kees Klima- und Kältetechnik GmbH in Ronnenberg on May 31, 2026. The company, with nearly 40 employees, specializes in sophisticated solutions around air conditioning, refrigeration, process, measurement, and control technology. Industrial companies constitute the large…
