With many years of experience in research and innovation for the lightweight design of the future, AIT's LKR Leichtmetallkompetenzzentrum Ranshofen is a leader in the development of high-quality light metal alloys, their sustainable processing through to the development of functionally integrated lightweight components and their recycling.

Thanks to this holistic research approach, which is supported by simulation methods, new technologies such as wire-based additive manufacturing of aluminum and magnesium as well as innovative casting and forming processes are emerging. Based on these new methods and know-how in the entire processing chain, the lightweight components developed by the LKR are widely use ...
