Impulses for Smart Products
Central to SmartPro is building a base for the development of smart products, especially in the field of e-mobility, mobile and autonomous systems. Therefore the various expertise on smart materials and intelligent production processes of the four research areas have been brought together.
Impulse projects
The SmartPro partnership is based on a long-term concept for cooperation. Research in the framework of impulse projects focusses on four areas of application:
- Energy converting machines and magnetic materials – MagNetz
- Battery technologies – LiMaProMet
- Hybrid light weight construction – InDiMat
- Additive Manufacturing/ Industry 4.0 – AddFunK

Strong universities of applied sciences – impulse for the region
Aalen University of Applied Sciences (UAS) has positioned itself among the best universities of applied sciences in Germany also by means of the SmartPro partnership. It is one of ten German UAS funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) with 10 million Euro for eight years until 2025 within the funding measure „FH-Impuls“. The main objectives of the initiative are the sustainable expansion of a regional transfer and cooperation network as well as strengthening research and innovation and developing a distinct research profile.
