This paper presents a characteristic diagram based approach to the correction of thermally induced tool center point displacements of machinetools. The entire process from the introduction of the correction principle to the issues arising in the online capable application of this correction method will be discussed, with special focus on the improvement and optimization of the calculation, input selection and grid structures of the characteristic diagrams.

Granulators cut extruded elastomer wires in small pieces, which can be used as starting raw material for injection molding. This contribution investigates the most relevant parameters of process and tool geometry for the granulation technology, with the aim of improving process efficiency and granule quality. Fiber-reinforced PA and ABS plastics have been analyzed using a dedicated test bench and finite element simulations. High-speed camera and various sensors were used to investigate the cutting process. The considered geometrical and kinematic parameters have been varied within a broad range in order to determine optimum values.

Based on a combined plasma based and galvanic process, an ultra-hard surface structure embossing tool will be developed to stamp holographic design features for example in embossing roller for the print and packaging industry as well as dies for striking coins or machine components. The multilayer bond, respectively the mutual multilayer adhesion is investigated, discussed and supported by parameter studies and evaluated by adhesive tape tests. Comparative investigations pertaining to surface reproduction accuracy of holographic design features are carried out using arc evaporative physical vapour deposition (PVD) and magnetron sputtering. The physically deposited titanium nitride(TiN)-layers are compared by their particular layer composition quality, deposition rate N and layer adhesion. In summary, holographic structures can be replicated in hard coatings with high surface reproduction accuracy. In comparison to the Arc-PVD process, the highest accuracy can be reached by magnetron sputtering.

Based on the method of adaptive finite elements (FEM) a correction approach has been considered to identify the influence of thermo-elastic workpiece deformations during the production process milling. The paper presents a simulation-based tolerance variation calculation of cutting paths, which is caused by the heat input of the machine tool. Therefore a mathematical method is developed to numerically depict the progress of the miller with different curves A(t), B(t) and C(t). These curves are used to map the state of the milling path during the production process as well as to compare the current workpiece contour and the target workpiece contour. The tool center point (TCP) correction results from mapping of time-dependent deformation fields from the FE simulation. The aim is, on the one hand, to make statements before the production about keeping the tolerance, and on the other hand, to derive other correction approaches for the adaption of the cutting path coordinates.

Many industrial companies are trying to improve their operation's sustainability. However, these efforts towards change are usually governed by economic considerations. This serves to neglect or at least diminish the perceivable relevance of ecologic or social consequences for investigated alternatives. This paper discusses the implications of multi-criterial target systems which extend the scope of considerations beyond economics to support the realisation of proactive environmental strategies. A special focus is set on the definition of targets as well as decision-making in brown-field planning projects. The findings are applied in a simulation-based study on the parameterisation of an energy-sensitive production control strategy.

Within the framework of investigations, an exhaust gas component made of Titanium Grade 2 was produced by means of Hot Metal Gas forming (HMGF) at the fraunhofer IWU in Chemnitz, *** semi-finished products were two-fold bent, thermal joined, calibrated and pre-formed tubes. So far, a three-stage internal high-pressure forming process at room temperature plus two necessary intermediate heat treatments were used to produce the component. Due to its complexity as well as the limited forming ability of Titanium Grade 2 at room temperature an one step Hot Metal Gas forming was developed to replace the former procedure.

Despite the ever increasing saturation of manufacturing with information and communication technologies, most collected data is only used for its original purpose. This limits the potential of this data because it is almost never analysed for more complex information. The SmARPro project aims to provide solutions for exposing equipment data, analysing linked data sources and bringing helpful information to the shop floor. This paper presents the underlying framework, which formalises the structure of the SmARPro system and provides the foundation of information-driven manufacturing. Its application is exemplified in a case study, in which traceability data is used for productivity analysis.

Improving performance during fine turn-milling operations including accuracy and productivity requires controlling of the cutting forces and the thermally induced displacement of the cutting edge. The objective of this investigation is to determine the thermally induced displacement of TCP during turn-milling and to reduce this displacement by using pressurized cooled air. The forces and tool elongation simulated by FEM are compared to measured values. It was shown that the amount of tool elongation could be 40% of the depth of cut in fine turn-milling, and it is possible to predict the tool elongation by FEM. Furthermore, cooled air can reduce the tool elongation by 65%.

Learning factories serve as platforms to disseminate research findings into industrial practice and to educate prospective engineers in hands-on courses. The number of competences which can be taught in learning factories is related with the number of available processes and machines. A larger number of machines enables for example comparisons between similar processes, the operation of longer process chains and generally speaking a broader curriculum. However, due to financial or space restrictions the investment in machines is often limited. In order to overcome this issue, the collaboration between learning factories through interconnection of process chains is proposed in this paper. A systematic method, by which possible interlinkages can be found, is presented and a case study of the interlinkage of two learning factories in Bayreuth and Augsburg is given.
