Oxide ceramic composite materials and fiber preforms for its production

Currently, continuous fibers in the form of woven or braided structures are used as reinforcement of oxide fiber composites. For the first time, short-fiber reinforced oxide fiber composites with a bending strength of more than 100 MPa can be fabricated. A short-fiber preform made of stapled fiber bundles fulfills the demand of a high fiber volume content, which is required to adjust good mechanical characteristics.

Magnesort – Process for the Recycling of Permanant Magnets

The invention describes a process which enables the separation of permanent magnets out of a crap mixture. In order to achieve this thermal treatment is realized which leads to a partly demagnetization. This enables the following separation in an alternating magnetic field. This process leads to a separate fraction of corresponding permanent magnets. A German as well as an international patent application are pending.

An experimental plant is build up. A proof-of-concept is realized. On behalf of the Westphalian University of Applied Sciences PROvendis offers licenses to interested companies.

Micro-Hydroforming – Internal High-Pressure Forming of Micro-Components

This invention concerns a device for internal high-pressure forming of micro-components from tubular moulding blanks. In this novel design, a carriage is sliding along guides, moved by a drive mounted separately from the guides. Hereby, the drive is coupled to the carriage free of any transverse forces. This minimises elastic deformations. Bending stresses in the plungers are avoided. The relative position between guide and forming tool is maintained.

The functional capability of the invention has been proven in many tests. Patents are granted in USA, Germany, France, Great Britain and Suisse. PROvendis is offering licences of the invention to interested parties on behalf of Cologne University of Applied Sciences.
