Publications and Projects
DENKweit's research and development activities in the B-Tech field combine innovative scientific work, practice-oriented research reports, as well as ongoing and completed funding projects. On this page, you will find an overview of our current publications, project descriptions, and results from applied research and development.
The focus is particularly on topics such as MFI (Magnetic Field Imaging), imaging magnetic field measurement, sensor-based measurement methods, as well as the transfer of scientific findings into industrial and medical applications. Our research reports document the transfer from basic research to marketable technologies and show how B-Tech innovations are created at DENKweit.
The studies, whitepapers, and research reports published here provide detailed insights into our work on new measurement methods, algorithms, and system solutions. They reflect DENKweit's interdisciplinary expertise in the fields of magnetic field sensor technology, imaging methods, data analysis, and technological development.
In addition, we present our national and international funding projects, which are implemented within the framework of publicly funded research and development. In close cooperation with industry partners, research institutions, and universities, we are specifically advancing future technologies in the field of MFI, B-Tech, and high-resolution magnetic field measurement.
With our publications and projects, we create transparency about our innovation work and emphasize DENKweit's claim as a leading partner for research, development, and technology transfer in the field of imaging magnetic field measurement.
Research Project "MagiQ"
In the state project "MagiQ" funded by IB-Sachsen-Anhalt, we are developing measurement technology/sensor technology together with Fraunhofer IMWS for application in quality assurance of electrolysis stacks.
The goal is to characterize and find defects in electrolysis stacks without them being in operation.
For this purpose, we use our high-frequency magnetic field measurement technology.
The electrolysis stacks are subjected to a high-frequency alternating current and we measure the resulting magnetic field - precisely, contactlessly and non-destructively.
This method is unique so far and opens up new possibilities for mass production and maintenance of hydrogen electrolysis systems.
