International conference IESSS 2026 in Aachen: Focus on electrical steel
The International Electrical Steel Sheet Summit will be held in Aachen in April 2026 and brings together global expertise in the production, development and processing of electrical steel sheet

The conference on April 22 and 23 offers a platform for the exchange of information on technological, scientific and industrial issues along the entire electrical steel value chain. The focus will be on electromobility, energy-efficient drive systems and sustainable production processes. Leading scientists and industry representatives will discuss new steel grades, modern production technologies as well as modeling and testing methods.
Aachen, as one of the leading science locations, offers an ideal environment for international exchange with the participation of four RWTH institutes. Companies such as BMW, ZF and thyssenkrupp emphasize the importance of electrical steel for the automotive and steel industries. Norbert Brachthäuser, Chairman of the Program Committee, emphasizes the role of electrical steel as an essential material for electric motors and power grids.
