New Manufacturing Technologies for Metallic Bipolar Plates
Conventionally, bipolar plates (BPP) are produced, e.g. by deep drawing, in medium quantities at comparatively high costs. Various production processes for BPP were therefore investigated and compared at Fraunhofer IWU. Not every process is suitable for every type of BPP. Among other ...more
Sound-absorbing sheet metal structures
Noise, vibrations and shocks affect the quality of life and everyday comfort. According to the latest studies by the World Health Organization, noise is the second biggest health threat to people. The mobility sector in particular is one of the main sources of noise. With the lightweight ...more
Tempered hydroforming of titanium
Due to their good weight-related mechanical properties, light metals such as titanium, aluminum and magnesium offer great application potential, especially for applications in the mobility / vehicle construction sector. On the other hand, there are comparatively limited possibilities for ...more
