  • Start: Immediately
  • Duration: 6 months

Your Location
Manching is a rising municipality that offers a diverse range of leisure and cultural activities. Here, you can enjoy the quality of life in the countryside while still utilizing the amenities of the nearby cities.

  • Opportunity to participate in the "Generation Airbus Community" to expand your own network.

Your Tasks and Responsibilities

  • Final Thesis (Master’s Thesis) - Investigation of the coating quality of cold gas sprayed aluminum layers using non-destructive testing methods
  • Cold Gas Spraying (CGS) has established itself as a versatile process for additive manufacturing and the repair of metallic components. Particularly in the case of aluminum-based layers, performance depends significantly on the internal coating quality, which is determined by the particle bond, porosity, and interface conditions. Currently, however, robust, non-destructive methods are lacking to evaluate this quality inline or close to the process-an essential prerequisite for industrial use in safety-critical applications.
  • In this Master’s thesis, the potential of various non-destructive testing (NDT) methods for assessing coating quality is to be investigated. The goal is to identify correlations between the results of the NDT methods and the mechanical properties of the layers and to evaluate their suitability for process-accompanying quality control.

Required Knowledge and Qualifications

  • Master’s studies in Physics, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Materials Science, or a related subject.
  • Fluency in English
  • Basic German knowledge
