"Great ideas do not only need wings,
but also a landing gear."
Neil Armstrong
To implement great ideas with technical ceramics and composites additional partners are required besides the experts controlling the projects and promoting innovation: This is why LAPP Insulators has worked for many years closely with scientific partners.
Within a wide research network scientific institutes as well as various renowned German universities and institutes have been integrated. The resulting synergy effects bundle competences around technical ceramics and set quality standards.
Sustainable power grids
Research Initiative of the Federal Government
Project "Lifetime analysis of ceramic insulators (LeKI)":
Goal is the development of an lifetime analysis by the calculation of the subcritical crack growth in ceramic longrod insulators. This procedure based on fracture mechanics shall result in an optimum operational strategy
