IAMHEX Closure Event

Can generative design drive meaningful innovation in heat transfer devices?
Can additive manufacturing (AM) translate these designs into energy-efficient, real-world solutions?
These were the guiding questions behind the IAMEX project, where researchers from KU Leuven and VITO explored the potential of generative design and AM for copper- and aluminum-based components.
We’re now ready to share key results but we also want to go beyond mere presentation. This is an invitation to dialogue!
Expect:
- In-depth insights on how generative design can reduce energy use.
- Demonstrations of the capabilities of AM for complex heat transfer components.
- Technical discussions on production methods such as powder bed fusion and micro-extrusion AM.
- Reflections on validation, testing, and broader applicability.
We’re especially curious to hear your thoughts:
- How do these findings connect with your own professional challenges and ambitions?
- Where do you see barriers and opportunities?
Join us in shaping the next steps of energy innovation. Together!
