Semi-hollow punch riveting is essential as a mechanical joining process for the implementation of lightweight construction concepts and mixed construction methods. In order to improve the sustainability of the process chain from forming riveting to joining, the authors established a new approach in which...
The use of newer measurement strategies offers the possibility of efficiently mapping and further developing thermally supported forming processes. By using laser ultrasound measurement, the non-contact and time-bound detection of microstructural changes can be achieved. Info...
On January 18, 2024, the Institute of Manufacturing Technology hosted the Scientific Writing Workshop with Elsevier. As part of exciting lectures, the scientific staff from various institutes in the Department of Mechanical Engineering were introduced to the basics of scientific...
Prof. M. Merklein wird in einem Beitrag der Gesellschaft Deutscher Naturforscher und Ärzte (GDNÄ) mit diesen Worten vorgestellt: "Ingenieurwissenschaftlerin, Firmenchefin und Mitglied des GDNÄ-Vorstandsrats, über die Zeitenwende im Maschinenbau, Schnupper-Unis und frühe Erfolge mit dem Bohrhammer....
In the summer semester of 2024, the Institute of Manufacturing Technology (LFT) is offering the advanced lab course in forming technology.The lab course takes place as a block event with a total of five dates in the lecture-free period between the exam periods (expected period: August 1, 2024...
In microforming technology, even the smallest components are of great importance. Therefore, in the second phase of our DFG project "Basic research and determination of process limitations in bulk forming processes of micro gears from sheet metal", our inno...
As part of the Production Engineering I lecture, the Institute of Manufacturing Technology gave students from various degree programs the opportunity to gain insights into the institute's current research and ongoing projects. The participants were able to...
On December 12th Andreas Jobst announced his resignation from the LFT. He delighted us with Bavarian specialties. We wish Andreas much success in his new place of work, which he will take up on January 1st!
Last Thursday, some members of the ESIMM (Essential Society for Impracticable Manufacturing Methods) as well as members of the LFT's materials characterization and modeling research group used the opportunity of the traditional Bamberg bock beer tapping to spend the evening in a cozy...
Six years of intensive collaboration in the DFG-funded priority program in 2013 came to a fitting conclusion at the 29th Saxon Forming Technology Conference. Mr. Andreas Jobst examined aspects relevant to residual stress during forming for the LFT together with eleven other projects...
