Ranshofen Light Metals Days 2024

AIT invites visitors to the conference “Light Metals Innovations for Environmental and Economic Sustainability”: Light metals, materials and process technologies in the context of decarbonisation and digitalisation.

The conference aims to address questions such as - What strategies are there for minimising resource consumption in the light metals industry through recycling and energy efficiency? How can lightweight construction make mobility more sustainable? And what role will artificial intelligence play in the future processes of the metallurgical industry? The 13th Ranshofen Light Metals Days 2024 will be held at the Hotel Gut Brandlhof in Saalfelden on September 26-27, 2024. The event is organised by the LKR Leichtmetallkompetenzzentrum Ranshofen of the AIT Austrian Institute of Technology.

Under the title “Light Metals Innovations for Environmental and Economic Sustainability”, an exciting program awaits participants on the topics of digitalisation and decarbonisation in the field of process and materials development as well as material characterisation of light metals. A balanced spectrum of international lectures from university, non-university and industrial research provides a current overview of the latest scientific findings and successful new light metal applications. For the first time, simultaneous translation (German-English) will be provided for all lectures, in order to offer all international guests an optimal service.

The individual lectures are thematically assigned to the following three sessions:

  • Digitalisation in the context of circularity
  • Sustainable process development
  • Innovative light metals and their characterisation

At the accompanying industrial exhibition, renowned companies from industry, research and testing technology will present the latest trends and technologies from their fields. And in a poster exhibition, scientists will provide insights into current research results. This “marketplace” for industry and science, as well as the traditional evening reception of the Light Metals Days, offer excellent opportunities for networking and promote the development of project ideas and business relationships.
