Research Group: Production in Space

Research into production under microgravity

Research into production processes under various gravitational conditions and the development of production technology suitable for use in space.

Here is an ITA special

ITA-Spezial: Production of optical waveguides

At ITA, manufacturing processes of optical fibers are investigated. Here the light guides are printed and dispensed, for example.

Lighthouse Production Technology

The PZH

Like seven other institutes of mechanical engineering dealing with production and logistics, ITA belongs to the Production Technology Center.

YouTube: 3D glass processing for microfluidic systems

03/01/2024

On our YouTube channel we offer insights into our research. This time on the topic: 3D glass processing for microfluidic systems; presented by Maren Prediger.

Lasers, glass and cells. In this insight into the research, the Institute of Microproduction Technology presents how the scientists use a 3D printer to produce microfluidic systems made of glass and other materials. These can be used, for example, to specifically retain cells from a cell suspension. Initial functionality tests, in collaboration with the Lower Saxony Center for Biomedical Engineering, Implant Research and Development (NIFE), demonstrate the usefulness of the system.
This work was carried out as part of Samuel Wulfert's Master's thesis. We would like to thank Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Andrea Hoffmann, Yvonne Roger, Ph.D. and Kirsten Elger of the working group "Biological Basis for Biohybrid Implants" for their cooperation.
