Under the motto “With new materials and innovative process technology to high-performance components”, the VDI conference “Processing Composites Efficiently” (“Composites effizient verarbeiten”) takes place in Augsburg on 4–5 June 2014
under the chairmanship of Dr.-Ing. Arnim Kraatz, Evonik Industries AG, Darmstadt. The organiser is VDI Wissensforum, www.vdi.de/composites
The opening lecture is given by Dr.-Ing. Erwin Bürkle on the topic “Fibre composites hold up a mirror to themselves – reflections on the state of the art” (“Faserverbundwerkstoffe halten sich den Spiegel vor – Reflexionen über den Stand der Technik”). Dr. Bürkle attempts to take stock (Where do we stand today?) and explores the questions of why no further progress has yet been made and what the future of this highly innovative group of materials could look like.
