Additively manufactured radial turbine with optimized internal cooling channels (LPBF – Laser Powder Bed Fusion)

A Type 4 hydrogen tank provides an innovative solution for the storage of hydrogen. This tank is characterized by its special design, which uses carbon fibers for reinforcement. The tank consists of a lightweight CFRP liner with a core of plastic-based material. This smart combination enables efficient hydrogen storage with minimal weight.

The 3D-printed mold for rotor blades of small wind turbines offers an innovative approach to the cost-effective and highly flexible production of high-quality rotor blades. The material, carbon fiber reinforced polyamide, combines the lightness of plastic with the strength and stiffness of carbon fibers. The 3D-printed mold ensures precise and consistent production of the rotor blades, which increases efficiency and minimizes waste. This not only makes the production of small wind turbines more sustainable, but also helps to promote renewable energy.
