Expanding Digitalization in Research

Fördermittelbescheid zum Ausbau der Digitalisierung der Forschung am ifw Jena 2026
We are pleased to have received the grant notification from the Free State of Thuringia’s funding program for research, technology, and innovation (FTI).

With this funding, we can expand our digital infrastructure for various research areas.

Among other things, we plan to 
🎇 Expand our beam-process programming and the corresponding simulation processes
💻 Develop simulation capabilities for hand-guided laser beam welding 

These planned investments will enable us to undertake new research projects and further develop laser processes.

The project, funded by the Free State of Thuringia, was co-financed by the European Union through the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).
