Research Assistant – Closed-Loop Control in Multi-Material Additive Manufacturing

vor 1 Tag


Zürich, Schweiz inspire Vollzeit

Job description When it comes to coatings, dissimilar materials need to be joined together, such as rigid substrates and low-friction coatings. Due to different melting points, the process window that joins materials is challenging to find. Predictive temperature control by active cooling is applied to stabilize the process and avoid overheating or undercooling. This innovative technology is referred to as CoolBraze, which paves the way to join materials that otherwise cannot be joint. Development of a cooling nozzle design together with simulation experts Development and setup of a system for closed-loop temperature control by active cooling Development of laser process parameters and analysis of the produced coatings (e.g. bonding, porosity, cracking) together with material experts Transfer of the newly developed process to parts on an industrial machine Profile CH/EU/EFTA citizenship or a valid work permit for Switzerland Master’s degree (technical university, university) in mechatronics, electrical engineering, robotics, or mechanical engineering with focus on monitoring and sensors is a must Excellent grades to meet the requirements for doctoral studies at ETH Zurich Knowledge of basics in additive manufacturing Willingness to learn skills in materials analysis (e.g., microscopy, hardness measurement) A good knowledge (written/oral) of English is mandatory. Knowledge of German is preferred Required soft skills: Highly self-organized and structured way of working High motivation to learn new skills and apply them to industrial context High level of team-orientation and positive work attitude Willingness to teach (about 10%) Workplace Workplace Curious? So are we. Please send your full application (cover letter, transcripts, CV, references) with reference “RA-AM” to Dr. Timo Schudeleit, Head of Laser Material Processing () and our HR department ().
