The Laser Zentrum Hannover e.V. (LZH) and the Institute of Electrotechnology (ETP) at the Leibniz Universität Hannover have developed a process to inductively harden and weld multi-piece construction elements of heat-treatable steels in one step.

No more chemicals for fighting weeds in professional gardening! A fully automated unit drives over a field, a camera recognizes weeds sprouting up and a laser beam takes care of the rest. This science-fiction scenario is actually being researched at the Zentrum Hannover e.V. (LZH) and the Institute for Biological Production Systems (IBPS) at the Leibniz University Hannover.

The Laser Zentrum Hannover e.V. (LZH) is coming out big in 2010 with ultrapure nanoparticles for medical applications. One example are LZH nanoparticle exponants that can currently be seen at the new “Center for New Technologies” (ZNT) at the Deutsche Museum in Munich. Also, in 2010 the LZH will host the first international conference on the generation of ultrapure nanoparticles.
