TOMSK, Mar 28 – RIA Tomsk. The Siemens company and Tomsk Polytechnic University (TPU) are considering options for cooperation in the field of additive technologies; in particular, the industrial concern is interested in metal powders for 3D printing, Martin Gitsels, the Vice President of Siemens in Russia told reporters on Thursday.

Earlier it was reported that Gitsels arrived in Tomsk to carry out an open lecture at TPU on industrialization digitalization.

Before the lecture for Tomsk citizens, the Vice President of the company was able to get to know TPU more closely - for him was held a presentation of the university and the scientific developments of polytechnicians. Later, commenting on what he had seen, Gitsels noted that he was particularly interested in metal powders for additive technologies.

"It is interesting because 30% of production technologies - are powder production. The properties of powders further provide the properties of finished products, parts, materials which are printed. Since our company does not want to print plastic things which are sold in any store, we are looking for serious approaches and quality", - he said.

As the Vice-Rector for External Affairs of TPU Liliya Kiryanova explained, it is about the development of the School of Advanced Manufacturing Technologies in the field of materials science: “Metal powders could be used for industrial equipment. For example, at the printing of a part of products of gas turbines".

In turn, Gitsels added that the quality of the 3D printed product with the addition of metal powders and nickel alloys should be no worse than a metal-cast product.

“We strive for such a maximum quality. The company itself does not deal with powders and 3D technologies. These are the aspects which they would like to find in research partners”, - the Vice President said.

Gitsels added that on Friday he plans to meet and discuss with polytechnicians another direction - robotic, associated with the group control of a swarm of drones to ensure the safety of pipelines.

"I see potentially interesting projects which could lead to collaboration with Siemens. But since Tomsk is not across the street from our office, we need to find opportunities for constant communication and cooperation that will suit us. In the modern developing digital world, I hope we can think of something. That is, it is important to find a suitable format", - Gitsels told.

As Kiryanova added, since 2014 between Siemens and TPU exists the cooperation agreement: "We use the company's equipment and software solutions in many very large projects in the fields of energy, industrial automation, and intelligent systems. And we expect that in the coming days we will be able to find joint projects to expand such a presence and mutual cooperation".
