Motion and the requisite energy are not the only aspects that determine how sustainable mobil ity is but so are the materials used to support it At Schaeffler these aspects are the focus of Material Solutions attention as early as in the product development stage Uwe Wagner Schaeffler s high exper tise in the fields of materials and surfaces prove to be a competitive advantage and innovation accelerator The Schaeffler Coating Toolbox offers an extensive portfolio of coatings enabling us to design the surfaces of components and systems exactly according to the specific requirements of our customers Steel for instance as one of the most frequently used materials is of high relevance to sustain able mobility The utilization of green hydrogen for the direct reduction of iron ore is a key com ponent in the effort to make steel clean and sus tainable going forward That s another reason why hydrogen is an important technology and growth field Material as an innovation factor a young engineer analyzing a material The new central laboratory will be completed in 2023 and occupied by employees at the beginning of 2024 Center of innovation The automotive and industrial supplier Schaeffler has laid the foundation stone for its state of the art central laboratory at its Herzogenaurach campus The 80 million euro investment in the building is a key element of the Roadmap 2025 The cross divisional central lab oratory complex in Herzogen aurach will span more than 17 000 square meters of total floor area and house 15 lab oratories and more than 360 employees Schaeffler has con sistently delivered the highest levels of innovative ability and development excellence says Uwe Wagner Chief Technol ogy Officer at Schaeffler AG The central laboratory will allow us to strengthen our expertise in the long term and to shape progress in the automotive and industrial sectors thanks to the solutions which will be devel oped there The synergies in the development process will enable Schaeffler to optimize technol ogies in the future fields e mo bility hydrogen and renewable energies and to ultimately bring product solutions on to the mar ket even faster The new central laboratory will cover a wide range of topics relat ed to the company s research and development activities particularly in key areas of tech nology including measurement testing and calibration systems material chemical coating and nanotechnologies as well as the optimization of operating life and system reliability The focus here is on material chemical coat ing and nanotechnologies with the corresponding high resolu tion measurement technologies metrology chemistry physics electronics and analysis 005 KOLLOQUIUM 2022
