Research
PROFACTOR focuses its research on two key areas.
Industrial automation systems, as well as additive micro- and nano-manufacturing, are among the key technologies for competitive factories of the future. Drawing on our many years of experience in national and international research projects, we have developed in-depth scientific and technological expertise in both areas.
Industrial Automation Systems
PROFACTOR develops industrial automation systems for the smart factory. Cognitive assistance systems, robotics, and human-centered computing connect people and machines, artificial intelligence, and sensor technologies. Through Zero Defect Manufacturing and non-destructive inspection, we enhance quality, flexibility, and efficiency in high-variant production.
Additive Micro- and Nano-Manufacturing
PROFACTOR conducts research in additive micro- and nano-manufacturing: microstructuring and 3D printing at the micro- and nanoscale, combined with functionalized and structured surfaces. Nanoimprint lithography (UV-NIL) and multi-material inkjet technologies enable customized components, new functionalities, and digital process chains for industrial applications.
