From July 4 to 6, the Polytechnic University hosted the international scientific conference "Implementation of Innovations. New Materials and Additive Technologies" (VINMiAT-25). Scientists and experts in the field of materials science discussed the latest achievements in the creation of new materials and equipment design.
The organizers were the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, the Russian Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus, PJSC Gazprom and SPbPU.
The conference considered modern achievements of science and technology in the field of physical and chemical processes for obtaining new materials and designing technological equipment, problems of implementation and commercialization of innovative technologies of the country's fuel and energy complex, as well as new approaches to solving urgent problems in modern materials science.
The plenary session was held in the research building of Technopolis Polytech. It was opened by the rector of SPbPU, academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences Andrey Rudskoy.
I am pleased to welcome you to the international scientific conference “Implementation of Innovations. New Materials and Additive Technologies”. This significant event brought together leading representatives of the scientific community, experts in the field of materials science, as well as students and postgraduates. I am confident that the results of our joint work will find practical application in various industries, contributing to the technological development of our country,” noted Andrey Rudskoy.
The Deputy Head of Department of PJSC Gazprom, Maxim Nedzvetsky, gave a welcoming speech, expressing gratitude to the Polytechnic University for the excellent organization and emphasizing the relevance of the issues discussed.
At the plenary session, Director of the Institute of Mechanical Engineering, Materials and Transport of SPbPU Anatoly Popovich made a report on the experience and prospects for the development of additive and laser technologies. As the chief designer of the Scientific and Technical Complex "New Materials, Technologies, Production" within the framework of the project "Strategic Technological Leadership", Anatoly Popovich paid special attention to the manufacture, repair and restoration of components of power engineering in various ways. He also assessed the prospects for the development of the additive technology industry.
Head of the Department of PJSC Gazprom Viktor Seredenok spoke about the implementation of innovative projects in the company. Associate Professor of the Higher School of Physics and Technology of Materials of the Institute of Metallurgical Engineering and Technology Oleg Panchenko gave a report "New Technological Approaches in Welding". He presented a number of technologies that are being implemented at the Polytechnic University. These are electric arc welding with a consumable electrode with cold metal transfer and a non-consumable electrode with a focused arc, manual laser welding, friction stir welding of steels, as well as process automation technologies.
Head of the structural division of the Russian Quantum Center (International Center for Quantum Optics and Quantum Technologies) Anton Guglya devoted his speech to quantum and related technologies in the oil and gas sector. Deputy Chief Engineer for Additive Technologies at UEC Aviadvigatel Alexander Aksenov shared his experience of using additive technologies in the company.
Representatives from Russia, Uzbekistan, Belarus and China participated in the conference. Their work was organized into several sections:
nature-like materials and additive technologies for their production; welding and related technologies; technology for producing powder, composite materials and coatings; equipment, automation and robotics of innovative technologies; physical and chemical processes and innovative technologies in modern materials science; implementation of innovations in high-tech products at PJSC Gazprom.
Specialists from the research laboratory "LiAT" of IMMiT SPbPU presented three reports. The research group analyzed residual deformations of a welded joint using different welding methods. The report presented the results of the influence of the welding method on the level of residual deformations, energy input and the width of the heat-affected zone, as well as on technical and economic characteristics.
A separate presentation was devoted to the restoration of nozzle blades made of cobalt and nickel alloy using laser cladding. SPbPU scientists created a laser cladding technology and developed measures to prevent cracks. The cladding blades successfully passed operational tests.
Mikhail Kuznetsov, Head of the Research Laboratory "LiAT" of IMMiT, presented a series of robotic systems for the implementation of laser welding, laser cladding and direct laser deposition processes in industrial production conditions. Among the developments are the mobile laser cladding system "Nomad", direct laser deposition systems, as well as laser and hybrid laser-arc welding. Special attention was paid to the laser foil welding system and the system for applying a porous coating to hip joint cups. The participants' attention was drawn to examples of the systems' application for solving industrial partners' production problems.
Participation in VINMiAT-2025 is very important for understanding the development trend of industry and science in the field of additive technologies, as well as identifying points of contact for further interaction with industry, commented Mikhail Kuznetsov.
At the sections, experts considered various issues: research into the mechanical properties of continuously reinforced nature-like polymer composites, development of biocompatible titanium-tantalum composites using selective laser melting, 3D printing of metal products using melt extrusion technology, implementation of innovations at Gazprom Transgaz Saratov, the procedure for admitting MTRs for use at Gazprom facilities, modern solutions in instrument making using machine vision and FDM technology, and much more.
A cruise on a motor ship with an excursion program was organized for the conference participants. A meeting was held on board the motor ship, where reports were presented by representatives of PAO Gazprom and its subsidiaries, scientific and educational institutions and enterprises.
