Invited Speaker
Prof. Hermann Luecken
Esslingen University, Germany
Hermann Lücken is a professor at
Esslingen University, Germany. He holds a master degree
in metallurgy and materials engineering from RWTH Aachen
University and received his PhD at Max-Planck-Institute
for Iron Research in Düsseldorf, Germany. Before joining
Esslingen University as full professor, he held various
management positions at ThyssenKrupp Group, Germanys
largest steel manufacturer. He served as department head
for high-strength steels, as quality manager with
worldwide reponsibility for all ThyssenKrupp steel
service center plants and as head of production in the
heavy plate rolling mill in Duisburg, Germany.
Prof. Lücken is teaching and researching at Esslingen
University, Faculty of Automotive Engineering, in the
fields of materials science, quality management and
process optimization. He also advises companies in the
steel processing industry on questions related to these
topics. His special research interests are fossile free
steels and circular economy in steel processing.
