"Cast your Dreams" - From the idea to the cast mountain bike frame from the 3D sand printer"

Lecture by Jonas Arimont (Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Institute of Production Engineering and Logistics)

Casting as a manufacturing process has been around for thousands of years. Even in the age of the energy and mobility transition, it remains an important key technology. Find out how environmentally friendly 3D-printed casting molds made of sand help to manufacture innovative products. This will be demonstrated using an aluminum mountain bike frame as an example.

An accompanying event to the exhibition "Herkules Racing Team | E-racing car from the University of Kassel"

The exhibition presents one of the most exciting projects at the University of Kassel: the students of the Herkules Racing Team are building real racing cars for real competitions. They compete against teams from other universities in the Formula Student, an international design competition. At UNI:Lokal, you will learn that there is much more to it than fast laps and quick pit stops.

Highlights of the exhibition are three racing cars from previous seasons. Both car connoisseurs and laymen will find lots of interesting information. Test your driving skills in a vehicle simulator and achieve fast lap times! A Carrera track also invites you to join in and experience the speed.
