IESSS 

International Electrical Steel Sheet Summit 

NEXT DATE: coming soon

Electrical Steel Sheets - Shape tomorrow today
 

The International Steel Sheet Summit took place once again at the TEMA Pyramid in Aachen, Germany, on 24-25 April 2024. The first edition of IESSS occurred in 2022, since then new technology and progress has been made with Electromobility, where electrical steel sheets are the central product. Highly powerful electric drives must now be further developed. Moreover, climate change is having an even greater impact on the global community and further reduction of CO2 emissions is essential. IESSS brought all partners of this specific value chain together to exchange experiences and to improve the power and efficiency of e-drives. This was an elementary condition to increase customers’ acceptance and awareness of this technology.

IESSS fosters collaboration among stakeholders for research exchange, aiming to enhance electric vehicle performance and increase customer acceptance through standardization.


TOPICS:

STEEL GRADES

compositions, microstructures, textures, mechanic and magnetic properties, dimensions, applications, customized grades for special motor designs such as EV (including design studies)

PRODUCTION OF ES- SHEETS

melting, casting, cold rolling, annealing, coating, process-integrated testing methods, new process routes such as TWIN- rolling, Belt- casting, additive manufacturing

PROCESSING TECHNOLOGIES

cutting technologies such as stamping, laser cutting, joining technologies for stack production such as welding, interlocking, bonding, bonding varnishes like Backlack

MODELLING, SIMULATION AND TESTING

material properties, components, joints, processes, innovative testing methods, characteristic values, drive cycle consideration for e-mobility, quality assessment and parts integrity

STANDARDIZATION

international standards for material and testing (ISO, IEC, EN), technical rules such as VDA (automotive) and others
