B-smart Lab: A new competence center for additive manufacturing at the PTB

B-smart Lab: A new competence center for additive manufacturing at the PTB

Since January 1, 2022, a team of PTB experts consisting of technicians, developers, and scientists from the engineering department Berlin (IB.TG) and our department (Dep. 8.2) has been responsible for the provision and continuous development of professional additive manufacturing. As part of the B-SMART Labs (Berlin Scientific Manufacturing for Research and Technology Laboratory), this know-how is now made available to a wide range of users. First joint results were published at conferences and in two scientific publications.

 

In addition, interested employees from other laboratories can now use additive manufacturing processes themselves and generate quick solutions for an experiment. In the so-called Makerspace, they are trained and supervised by a technician from the competence team. The official opening of the Makerspace took place on June 1, 2022, and has since been used by many PTB employees to implement their own development ideas.
