Product innovation, open innovation and corporate venturing - these are the three cornerstones of innovation at Heraeus.
Mankind has sent probes and robots to the moon, Mars, Venus and even asteroids. Yet we still know little about the nature of planets and stars. The next missions will lead us increasingly to icy celestial bodies such as Saturn or Jupiter's moons. To unlock the astrobiological secrets here, you need the right tools: for example 3D-printed milling heads made of amorphous metals.
Discover how amorphous metals contribute to the exploration of ice planets
According to researchers, we understand just five percent of the existing matter in our universe. The rest consists of unknown dark matter and its mysterious power - the so-called "dark energy". Using the Euclid space telescope, experts are mapping in 3D the distribution of up to two billion galaxies and the dark matter associated with them.
Especially since the outbreak of the corona virus, the topic of disinfection has been omnipresent. Disinfection spray and wipes are well suited for tables and everyday objects. But how many litres of disinfection spray do you think an airport needs to disinfect its floors? The answer: zero.
Welcome to fiftyONE - a place where people network, where new things are created, where knowledge is digitalised and where our customers are the focus of attention. A place that does not restrict. An "Open Space for Open Minds".
In healthcare, speed-to-market is critical. When patient lives are at stake, the medical device industry works with special urgency to get their medical innovations from the concept stage to real-world treatments.
Because the medical device industry relies heavily on strategic outsourcing partnerships, collaboration is increasingly important for medical device manufacturers to augment their internal teams and accelerate product development. Heraeus Medical Components recently opened its state-of-the-art Collaboration Hub specifically to help medical device customers and partners get their products and innovations to market faster.
The new 6,200 square-meter facility, located in the heart of “Medical Alley” in Minneapolis, Minnesota, provides customers and partners the opportunity to work on-site or virtually with an ecosystem of Heraeus Medical Components R&D experts, including engineers, designers, materials scientists, production specialists and other technical professionals. By bringing all these critical teams and disciplines together under one roof, collaboration can be faster and more productive.
The Collaboration Hub enables customers to utilize all the needed expertise and development technologies for quick-turn prototyping, testing and pilot production of new products and treatment innovations. The facility’s design and development capabilities include:
The Heraeus Electronics InnovationCenter in Shanghai opened its doors in 2018.
On more than 600 square meters, Heraeus developers simulate, design and test products and prototypes for the power electronics and semiconductor industry. Heraeus works with customers at an early stage of development – this supports the development process. Customers are more successful in initial development and introduce the product to the market faster.
With about 58 machines, the Heraeus InnovationCenter has extensive testing and simulation capabilities – including a two-chamber vacuum soldering furnace, a wire bonder for aluminum-copper wires, and test stations for endurance testing and X-ray inspection.
Our Corporate Innovation team is the central contact for companies, start-ups, universities and research centers interested in working with Heraeus.
For us, the customer is at the beginning of every innovation. With research and application centers around the world, we develop and test products together with customers on site. This enables us to make a relevant contribution to their success and competitiveness. We are convinced that joint research and development makes innovations faster and better. This is why we have extended our innovation work to external partners such as other companies, research networks and universities - and are always open to new partnerships. We offer visionaries a platform to turn their ideas into reality. We are looking for startups from various fields worldwide, operate an internal startup incubator, invest in promising ideas and invite startups to participate in our unique Advanced Materials Accelerator Program.
