Research as an driver for sustainable innovation
From the idea to industrial success – through research at national and international level, we work with partners from industry and science to develop the latest technologies that sustainably strengthen industry and the economy.
Targeted knowledge transfer turns current research findings into forward-looking solutions that master current challenges and are implemented in industrial applications.
Our funded projects set new standards in mechatronics: they accelerate technological progress, strengthen the competitiveness of our partners and drive the sustainable further development of industry and social progress. In this way, research becomes the engine for long-term success and innovation.
Research projects
Our national and international research projects create maximum added value for industry through the targeted transfer of knowledge from science to practice. These funded projects set new standards in mechatronics and drive innovative solutions for future challenges.

As a leading provider of innovative mechatronic excellence, we are driving forward a challenging research program for pioneering technologies. Through close networking with international science and research centers, scientific publications and contributions at renowned conferences, we are strengthening our global visibility – and developing the mechatronic know-how of the future together with our partners.
FFG Success Stories
As Scientific Director, it is a key concern of mine to actively promote diversity, equal rights and equal opportunities. Supporting women in science and research is particularly important to me. That is why I am committed to offering women targeted career opportunities – especially in management positions and as project managers.Dipl.-Ing. Dr. Manfred Nader Chief Scientific Officer (CSO)
Science becomes female
At the Linz Center of Mechatronics (LCM), we specifically support female researchers and technicians at the start of their careers and are committed to equal opportunities for all employees. Diversity strengthens creativity, decision-making quality and teamwork.
With clear goals and measures, we create an environment that offers all genders equal opportunities for personal and professional success – and make LCM an attractive employer for top talent.
Gender Equality Plan
It is one of LCM’s core values that all people have the same opportunities and development possibilities in their professional lives. and development possibilities in their professional lives. With our management mission statement, we have committed ourselves to a culture that sees diversity as an opportunity and differences as an important resource. Our managers recognize performance and development potential and support all people in their professional and personal development. Our Gender Equality Plan (GEP) focuses on gender equality. However, there are also measures in the plan that are explicitly aimed at eliminating existing numerical imbalances.
