Job description

When it comes to coatings, dissimilar materials need to be joined together, such as rigid substrates and low-friction coatings. Due to different melting points, the process window that joins materials is challenging to find. Predictive temperature control by active cooling is applied to stabilize the process and avoid overheating or undercooling. This innovative technology is referred to as CoolBraze, which paves the way to join materials that otherwise cannot be joint.

Development of a cooling nozzle design together with simulation experts
Development and setup of a system for closed-loop temperature control by active cooling
Development of laser process parameters and analysis of the produced coatings (e.g. bonding, porosity, cracking) together with material experts
Transfer of the newly developed process to parts on an industrial machine

Profile

CH / EU / EFTA citizenship or a valid work permit for Switzerland

Master’s degree (technical university, university) in mechatronics, electrical engineering, robotics, or mechanical engineering with focus on monitoring and sensors is a must

Excellent grades to meet the requirements for doctoral studies at ETH Zurich

Knowledge of basics in additive manufacturing

Willingness to learn skills in materials analysis (e.g., microscopy, hardness measurement)

A good knowledge (written / oral) of English is mandatory. Knowledge of German is preferred

Required soft skills :

Highly self-organized and structured way of working

High motivation to learn new skills and apply them to industrial context

High level of team-orientation and positive work attitude

Willingness to teach (about 10%)
