The development of processing machines is a complex task that places the highest demands on the processing system. These arise from the increased demands on the quality of end products, which are associated with the processing of materials and their difficult-to-measure properties. A central element of machine development is the investigation of specific interactions between the working elements and the material to be processed - the so-called effect pairing technology. This forms the basis for the process-specific optimization of drive and control systems, which are required for the technical implementation of highly dynamic manufacturing processes. In the pharmaceutical and food industries in particular, purity and hygiene are of crucial importance. Against this background, the Chair is currently focusing on the following fields of research:
Efficient and sustainable cleaning is a key factor in modern production. Research concentrates on innovative processes for the gentle and resource-saving removal of impurities - for the highest hygiene standards and optimized process reliability.
