Conventional keys can be copied easily, but not the keys from the company Urban Alps. Researchers from ETH Zurich and BFH make the 3D metal printing and design tools suitable for this industrial application. Watch the video.
Swiss people floating freely
Industry Projects
Free-floating car sharing could be a flexible alternative to private cars. But does this concept work in Switzerland? The ETH Institute for Transport Planning and Systems investigated this question together with the car sharing company Mobility. Henrik Becker gives insights into this project.
Cooling of milling machines
Industry Projects
The cooling of heavily-stressed machine parts like spindles is a challenge – especially when high speed and high precision are required. inspire (competence center and strategic partner of ETH Zurich) has carried out a project with industrial and academic partners to tackle this challenge. Read the interview with Lukas Weiss (inspire).
