Engagement

We drive innovation and are therefore always happy to help others set new standards. That's why we stand by young organizations and up-and-coming initiatives - and get involved in various research projects with advice and practical support.

mu – zero HYPERLOOP

For several years, Coroflex has been involved in projects in the fields of e-mobility and innovative drives. Since 2022, Coroflex has been supporting the project of the mu-zero HYPERLOOP association, in which students from four universities in Baden-Württemberg are developing a prototype for the Hyperloop, originally launched by Tesla founder Elon Musk.

For this project, the students needed high-quality high-voltage cables which had to be as small as possible in a very confined space and their weights as low as possible. Coroflex was able to provide this, complemented with a wide range of know-how. With the help of this support, the students were able to produce a first prototype.

We congratulate the team of mu-zero and look forward to further cooperation!

Stratospheric balloon

Measuring extremely low-frequency magnetic fields at an altitude of 27 km - that was the mission of a research project by students from Nordhausen University of Applied Sciences in 2021 as part of the REXUS/BEXUS program of ESA, DLR and the Swedish SNSA.

Coroflex supported the ambitious project with robust silicone cables that were able to withstand the extreme temperatures of up to -60 °C in the lower stratosphere and fully met the dynamic requirements of the experiment.

We are delighted with the successful flight and are looking forward to the research results.
