About the event

Welding metal and plastic together? That sounds unusual. Plastic and wood? Even more so. Yet that is precisely what is now possible.

Joining different materials together is often a complex process in industrial manufacturing. At the same time, new material combinations are becoming increasingly important for sectors such as the automotive, aerospace and furniture industries.

Mario Leitner is familiar with this challenge from more than 20 years’ experience in industrial manufacturing and application development. As co-founder and CEO of royos, he and his team are developing and marketing a technology that enables different materials to be welded together in a single process step.

In this expert discussion, he will join Cornelia Leitner, co-founder, CTO & COO, and DI Dr.mont. Andreas Hausberger, CRO and expert in polymer engineering, to discuss the opportunities this creates for industrial manufacturing, lightweight construction and new product designs – and what the path from a deep-tech innovation to industrial scale-up might look like.

What to expect

  • The current state and trends in modern material joining
  • New processes and methods in materials manufacturing
  • Lightweight construction and new design possibilities
  • Challenges in industrial scaling
