Production machines

Fraunhofer Institute for Production Technology

Produktionsmaschinen

We consider ourselves to be a competent and professional partner for the development and construction of production plant with which to individually and efficiently manufacture your complex products - from initial technical advice to final implementation.

The area of Production machines is divided in:

Development of precision and special purpose machines

The work of the "Precision and special purpose machines" department covers all activities involved in the development of precision and special purpose machines. We aim to develop high-precision special purpose machines and components to meet the specific demands of our clients. We work on the basis of their requirements, either in terms of initial machine concepts, the design and optimization of critical components or control technology and the implementation of complex control systems.

Fiber-reinforced plastics and laser system technology

Our "Fiber-reinforced plastics and laser system technology" department aims to meet the increasing industrial demand for fiber-reinforced lightweight components by developing production processes and systems for the automated manufacture of lightweight fiber-reinforced themoset and thermoplastic components. Our research, development and service activities include the design of fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) components and the manufacture of prototypes. We can also develop customized production plant for your tape laying, wrapping, thermo-forming and pultrusion processes as well as innovative gripper systems for handling semi-finished FRP parts.
