Dry lubricated Harmonic Drives for space applications (HarmLES)
Start date: Jun 1, 2011, End date: Feb 28, 2015,
On spacecrafts reduction of mass and power consumption are a major issue. On the other hand, in case of mechanisms for Solar Arrays or antennas big masses have to be moved and kept in position for long times. Harmonic Drives would fulfil the requirements: high gear ratios enable the use of small actuator motors (low mass and power), they provide high stiffness and high precision even at very low s ...

Development of wear resistant coatings based on complex metallic alloys for functional applications (appliCMA)
Start date: Dec 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2011,
The project aims at the development of a new type of coatings based on Complex Metallic Alloys (CMA). This is a family of ternary and quaternary alloys which exhibit unexpected properties. The CMAs “Al61.5Cu25.3Fe12.2 B1” and “Al59.5Cu25.3Fe12.2 B3” consist only of metals, which show not metallic- but ceramic-like behaviour. Moreover, the bulk versions of these quasicrystals have proven outstandin ...
