On October 15, 2015, a workshop on the subject of "Electro-hydraulic shredding - New method for processing material composites" will take place in the premises of the Fraunhofer project group IWKS in Alzenau.
The workshop is organized in cooperation with ImpulsTec GmbH, a young high-tech company that builds and sells high-voltage pulse systems and components for high-voltage pulse technology.
In the half-day workshop, the application of electro-hydraulic shredding (EHZ) for the selective processing of material composites will be presented. The method is based on the generation of shock waves, which are generated by pulsed high-voltage discharges and transmitted to the material via a liquid carrier medium. Based on application examples, the method is practically illustrated.
