Research for a sustainable future

The metals research institute Swerim conducts needs-based industrial research and development concerning metals and their route from raw material to finished product. Our vision is a fossil-free and circular industry.

New process increases strength

Bodycote, together with Swerim, has developed a new process for hardening steel components.

Green rocket engines in space

For the past 10 years Swerim has helped the aerospace company ECAPS with analysing welded and soldered joints to further develop their rocket engines.

Researchers at Swerim develop world-unique Swedish standard for measuring argon

Microscopic bubbles can cause gigantic problems. At least if the bubbles consist of the noble gas argon and have been trapped in pressed metal parts.

A new generation of particle analyses for metal powder

Swerim combines dynamic image analysis and measurement of powder rheology, enabling understanding of how metal powder characteristics influence the final product.
