DLR Institute of Structures and Design

Our event partner

The DLR Institute of Structures and Design has set itself a major goal: to lighten the future. At our sites in Stuttgart and Augsburg, we develop high-performance structures for the aerospace, automotive engineering and energy technology sectors that go far beyond conventional developments – and enable real technological breakthroughs. 

Our work is based on the interplay between high-performance, temperature-resistant materials and the very latest digital technology. This combination allows us to develop new construction methods that open up previously unimagined possibilities in lightweight construction in the areas of assembly, system integration and recycling. 

 

In our five departments and our close, strategic cooperation with the Institute for Frontier Materials on Earth and in Space, we push forward technical progress on a daily basis. From the materials we use through to the demonstrators we construct and the automated production processes we develop, we always rely on solutions that are climate friendly, efficient and conserve resources.
