At the Institute for Production Technology and Forming Machines (PtU), combined plain rolling bearings are developed. In order to better understand the behaviour of these bearings, a numerical simulation model is being developed. To support our team, we are looking for a student assistant in the field of production engineering and forming machines in mechanical engineering. Contact Daniel Martin, M.Sc Announcement as PDF

At the Institute of Production Engineering and Forming Machines (PtU), linear friction welding is investigated both experimentally and numerically. To support our team, we are looking for a student assistant in the field of production engineering and forming machines in mechanical engineering. Contact Daniel Martin, M.Sc Announcement as PDF

To support our team the Institute for Production Engineering and Forming Machines (PtU) is looking for a student assistant for self-responsible organization and maintenance of our institute's own library. Contact Dominic Griesel, M. Sc. Announcement als PDF

On 25./26. September 2019, the “Institut für Fertigungsforschung e. V.” and the Institute for Production Engineering and Forming Machines organize the “11 th Symposium on Roll Forming” in Darmstadt, Germany.

This year's student competition "Steel Flies!" was held on 25th and 26th June at METEC fair in Düsseldorf. Fourteen teams from five German universities and the Ain Shams University from Cairo/Egypt competed against each other to achieve the longest flight distance and flight duration with a flying object made purely out of steel.

On June 5th and 6th, 2019, the Institute of Production Engineering and Forming Machines (PtU) of the Technical University of Darmstadt hosted the final colloquium of the Priority Program (SPP) 1640 – Joining by Plastic Deformation.

Hessen creates knowledge – this was the motto under which two PtU scientific staff members were represented at the Hessentag in Bad Hersfeld.

For the selection, design and maintenance of measurement electronics and sensors for testing in industrial environments, a student assistant is needed at the Institute for Production Engineering and Forming Machines (PtU). Contact Christian Kubik, M. Sc. Announcement als PDF
