On the new website, visitors who have registered can save their appointments schedule for the event with the aid of a special tool. Four weeks before the event, the HK app will be available for Android and iOS devices. The app will accompany both visitors and exhibitors throughout the event. The programme and extracts from the congress lectures will be integrated into the app. It will also be possible to deal with appointment administration from the app and to synchronize appointments with Outlook.
This year, for the first time, there will be a discussion forum at the congress, to be held on Wednesday morning, on the theme of materials and heat treatment for electromobility. AWT has invited experts from research and industry to take part in the forum. The discussion will focus on challenges in terms of materials technology for the electrically powered drive train. Guests will receive an overview of the requirements for changes with regard to the required components and production processes for the drive train depending on current development forecasts. In addition, some metallic components will be highlighted by technology experts. These are, for example, electrical steel sheets, stator housings and rotors. A separate entrance ticket for the discussion forum can be purchased for € 150.
