Tailored component properties – materials, processes and performance
The targeted tailoring of component properties is essential to ensure the performance, reliability and service life of components. Using state-of-the-art technologies – from subsurface modification and additive manufacturing to analytically supported process development – we implement tailor-made solutions for your application. Whether it's an implant in medical technology, an engine component in aviation or a series-production component in automotive engineering – we adapt our technologies and processes to your component and material requirements.
Our services – from analysis to functional component manufacturing
- Targeted modification of subsurface properties – We specifically modify the subsurface properties of your components to optimise hardness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance or friction behaviour – depending on the material and requirements.
- Tailored surfaces for specific applications – We develop application-specific surface solutions – for example, friction-minimising or corrosion-resistant – using technologies such as hardening, structuring or modern manufacturing processes.
- Increased service life through process-oriented component design – Through stress-optimised manufacturing and targeted material selection, we enable a significant increase in service life – even under highly dynamic loads or in corrosive environments.
- Additive manufacturing and finishing – The combination of additive manufacturing and targeted finishing opens up new potential in component functionalisation – for example, in medical technology, aviation or special machine construction.
- Integrated quality testing and analysis – With our in-house analytics department, we ensure the quality of components during and after functionalisation, including microstructure analyses, surface characterisation and performance tests.
- Increased component performance
- Targeted analysis and optimisation of your component properties
- Greater efficiency throughout the entire process chain
- Additive manufacturing with integrated post-treatment
- Sustainable and energy-efficient technologies
- High level of expertise in safety-critical industries (e.g. medical technology)

Material- and component-specific process design
Whether titanium for implants, die-cast aluminium for automotive components or high-performance materials for aviation: we adapt all functionalisation processes to the specific material and component. In doing so, we consider the entire process chain – from semi-finished products to process development and final quality control.
Damage analysis and root cause investigation as part of optimisation
We investigate failures, cracks, corrosion damage or deformations through structured damage and root cause analyses. Based on these findings, we develop concrete improvement measures – both in terms of processes and design.
Tailor-made functionalisation solutions for these industries
Our technologies are used in the following industries and components, among others:
- Medical technology: Magnesium implants with bioactive surfaces
- Automotive: Low-wear engine components and die-cast parts
- Aerospace: High-strength, structured lightweight components
- Machine and tool construction: Durable, heavy-duty functional units
