Fraunhofer Institute for Casting, Composite and Processing Technology IGCVWe ensure efficiency, effectiveness, safety, precision and reliability in production and drive the development of new technologies.
Our extensive cross-industry research and project work allow us to offer diverse support across three focus industries: Mechanical and Plant Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, and Automotive and Commercial Vehicles. With our profound expertise and years of experience, our scientists and engineers collaborate closely with industry experts to develop and implement innovative solutions that address the challenges of efficient engineering.
We tackle complex tasks across various industries by facilitating integrated innovations that encompass materials technology, component design, production technology, and supply chain management. Our specialist departments work in a sector-specific manner to ensure that knowledge from research and development is effectively translated into industrial applications, thereby bridging the gap between the research laboratory and our partners.
In recent years, we have engaged directly with companies in the mechanical and plant engineering, aerospace, automotive, transportation, and casting sectors, while also collaborating with a diverse range of other industries, comprising about a quarter of our partnerships. This interdisciplinary approach enables us to implement our solutions effectively across various fields.
