Abstract

Biological or bio inspired production will fuel the next major change in our industry. Well into the industrial revolution of Industry 4.0 and digitalization laser induced micro- and sub micrometer structures are promising to advance biocompatibility of mechanical engineering.

I will give insights into our current research. Highlights include an increase in robustness and durability of the bioactive coatings on dental implants up to the capable imitation of organic structures to minimize clot adhesion in complex mechanical circulatory support devices shown on an artificial heart.
