IFW | Producing particularly light, stable and versatile components – that is the aim of a new collaborative research centre. The IFW is developing simulation methods to predict the properties of the hybrid, porous components and optimise production.
- Research
IFW | Networking production with data-driven solutions and thus promoting autonomy in manufacturing – that is the aim of the ‘Factory-X’ project. The IFW is focussing on order processing and energy and load management.

IFUM | In hot forging, processes are usually simulated using the finite element method (FEM). However, friction is not sufficiently taken into account. Researchers at IFUM want to adress this by developing an enhanced friction model.
- Research
IMPT | The surface oxidation of tools and workpieces often leads to high wear in regular production processes. Scientists in the Collaborative Research Center 1368 are investigating what production without oxygen – and therefore without oxidation – could look like.
