Beschreibung

In cooperation with the Chair of Laser Technology LLT, the Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology ILT offers the opportunity to write a thesis.


Additive manufacturing processes such as Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) allow near-net-shape production of components with increased functional integration and reduced material usage.

Additive manufacturing is therefore considered to be of central importance in terms of increasing the sustainability of future product developments and production chains.

In contrast to conventional manufacturing processes, the tool-free production of components promises advantages not only in terms of the resulting economy, but also ecology.


As part of the thesis, a methodology for evaluating the ecological impact of various additive manufacturing processes is to be developed.

Knowledge of additive manufacturing and sustainability management is an advantage, but not essential

What you will do

Research on the state of the art of ecological assessment and current additive manufacturing processes

Development of an evaluation scheme and comparison of key figures for additive manufacturing processes

Comparison of the ecological effects compared to conventional processes

Evaluation and derivation of recommendations for action

Documentation of the results

What you bring to the table

You are studying a technical or scientific degree program (e.g. mechanical engineering, materials science, physics)

Great commitment, creativity and an independent and reliable way of working

Good knowledge in German

What you can expect

Practice-oriented thesis in an innovative working environment

Excellent equipment in the laboratories and first-class machines and devices

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.
