Ba-/ma-thesis: in The Field of Beam Shaping
vor 4 Wochen
In cooperation with the Chair of Laser Technology LLT, the Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology ILT offers the opportunity to write a thesis.
The trend towards hydrogen technology requires the efficient production of bipolar plates. A gas-tight plate is produced from two stainless steel half-shells. Due to the complex contour and long connection, laser beam welding is used here. The quality of the weld seam is crucial for efficient production and must be controlled.
The focus of this work is on the variation of the beam profile, starting from the classic circle to flow-adapted geometries, in order to influence the heat conduction and the weld pool dynamics. This can be realized, for example, by means of a doubled setup or a ring-mode laser.
Previous knowledge of laser technology is desirable, but not a prerequisite for carrying out this work.
What you will do
Modulation of the beam shape to generate different melt velocity profiles for welding bipolar plates
Scientific investigations
Literature research of relevant publications & studies
Carrying out experiments
Analysis, evaluation, processing and presentation of the results
What you bring to the table
Interest in technical problems and enjoy practical, experimental and analytical work
Interest in laser technology and the further development of manufacturing processes for electromobility and hydrogen technology
What you can expect
A practice-oriented thesis in an innovative working environment
Supervision of your work by experienced researchers
A creative and interdisciplinary working environment in a highly motivated team
Flexible working hours for a better work-study balance
Very good transportation options (bus; car)
The position is temporary until completion of the thesis.
With its focus on developing key technologies that are vital for the future and enabling the commercial utilization of this work by business and industry, Fraunhofer plays a central role in the innovation process. As a pioneer and catalyst for groundbreaking developments and scientific excellence, Fraunhofer helps shape society now and in the future.
