Topics/Research and Teaching Profile
Under the leadership of Prof. Marco Gerlach, the Chair is dedicated to the comprehensive teaching and further development of methods and concepts relating to Geometric Product Specification and Verification (GPS). Particular emphasis is placed on the design and determination of characteristic parameters of geometric properties and their significance for the functional properties of components.
Working closely with current developments in standardisation and industry practice, including within the DIN Standards Committee NA 152-03-02 and in the field of VDI guidelines (e.g. VDI 3.21 Form Measurement Technology), a sound foundation in measurement technology is taught and further developed. This is complemented by research and teaching on digital strategies in production monitoring and on modern production measurement technology.
Further key areas of focus include quality assurance and the application of effective quality techniques, particularly in the context of tolerancing and the measurement of geometric deviations, in order to ensure reliable and cost-effective product realisation.
