65th German Tribology Conference 2024

In November, 65 years ago, the Gesellschaft für Schmiertechnik (GST), the predecessor organization of the GfT, was founded. Since annual conferences on the topics of friction, lubrication and wear have been held regularly from the very beginning, the German Tribology Conference can also celebrate its 65th anniversary this autumn. On this occasion, the plenary event will begin with a look back not only at the history of GfT, but will also highlight the milestones of tribological research in Germany over several centuries. In interviews and other contributions, however, the present and the outlook on future challenges are not neglected.

As every year, the current state of the art of tribological research and development, mainly in German-speaking countries, is reflected by the program of the conference, which includes more than 70 lectures from almost all areas of tribology.
