IFT
The IFT focuses on the development of innovative manufacturing processes and the necessary machinery and production systems. In recent years, emphasis has been placed on the twin transition in production. Digital technologies offer new opportunities for mapping economically and ecologically optimized value-creation processes. In addition to academic education and basic research, technology transfer in close cooperation with industry partners is an important concern for us.
