Industrial Computed Tomography (iCT) and Additive Manufacturing (AM) share a fundamental connection—both revolutionize industrial processes through non-destructive analyses and flexibility. As AM pushes the limits of design complexity, iCT emerges as a decisive enabler for guaranteeing quality, structural integrity, and material inspection.

This series of presentations will explore several iCT methodologies for quality inspection and material characterization, including offline use, online and inline analyses, and real-time tracking of material microstructure evolution (4D iCT). Examples of applications from leading manufacturing companies will span car batteries, polymer/composite AM parts, and neutron and X-ray high-energy-iCT problem-solving.

Whether validating intricate lattice structures, optimizing composite materials, or overcoming the challenges of tomographic volumetric printing (TVP), this discussion will unfold how iCT and AM together can drive the reliability and efficiency of next-generation manufacturing solutions.

The seminar introduces all the relevant high-power applications of lasers in a ‘basic knowledge’ session. We continue to discuss the laser safety aspects of high-power lasers, concluding with a series of industrial application cases presented by representatives from Danish industry and academia.

With the advent of handheld high-power lasers for welding and cleaning applications, the implications on laser safety become increasingly relevant, as exposure to high-power laser radiation can be harmful and cause irreversible injury. Laser safety is thus a highly regulated but often overlooked aspect of industrial laser applications.

Topics and program

Broadly, this seminar will address topics related to lasers and their industrial applications in materials processing. Furthermore, it adds the present topic of laser safety that need to be considered whenever high-power lasers are applied. The program takes a two-step approach, initially introducing the basic application scenarios for high-power lasers and the technologies behind these.

The second part considers the safety aspects of high-power lasers and presents a number of actual industrial applications of high-power lasers in production environments, by experts from the Danish Industry. The aim is to bring together players and experts from both academia and industries to tackle various issues.

Basic knowledge

• Cutting & welding
• 3D printing
• Cleaning & engraving
• Laser shaping and measuring

Cases and nuggets of wisdom

• Laser safety
• Case: Migatronic Automation
• Case: Broen

This seminar is organized by our production steering group members Morten Kristiansen, AAU and Michel Honoré, Force Technology.

Registration fee

All prices are exclusive of Danish VAT 25%.

Early bird discount of DKK 300 when registering before 17 January 2025.

The NIS2 directive imposes strict requirements on companies and organisations regarding cybersecurity and documentation – but do you know exactly what an inspection implies?

In this webinar, Senior Security Architect, PhD Andreas Aabrandt, gives you some practical advice on how to best prepare for an inspection. Andreas has many years’ experience in ensuring that companies comply with new laws and regulations, including NIS1, the predecessor of NIS2. He has played a key role in companies that have undergone inspections and advised companies in compliance, giving him experience from both perspectives.

Andreas will share his knowledge on best practice for documentation and security procedures, so you are better prepared to meet regulatory requirements.

You will have the opportunity to ask questions during the webinar. However, the focus is on sharing experiences and useful points of attention for your preparation for the upcoming NIS2 inspections.

After the webinar, you are welcome to contact us to discuss how we can best assist you in meeting the new NIS2 requirements and ensuring compliance in your specific organisation and industry context.

Why you should attend

The webinar is relevant for companies and organisations within the scope of the NIS2 directive who wish to understand and meet the expectations of an inspection by the supervisory authorities.
The webinar seeks to answer the following questions:

• How a NIS2 inspection is usually carried out,
• What the supervisory authorities typically focus on,
• What documentation requirements you may encounter, and how your company can meet them.

Key takeaways

You will gain a realistic understanding of NIS2 inspections, making it easier for you to identify and strengthen your security measures and documentation, thereby preparing you for an inspection.
