Master studies at the IKFF

This lecture can be chosen as a core or supplementary subject in different specialization subjects and also within a competence field in different Bachelor’s degree programs.
The module deals with the fundamentals of the development and construction of precision engineering systems and devices and emphasizes the close connection between structual design and associated manufacturing technology.
The focus is on the following topics:

• Methodology of device development, methodical approaches to creative solution finding

• Accuracy and error behavior in devices, precision device technology 
  (requirements and construction of precise devices and machines)

• Tolerance calculation, tolerance analysis

• Reliability and safety of equipment 
  (construction in accordance with reliability and safety requirements)

• Relationships between the device and the environment

• Vibration damping and noise reduction in the device technology

• Thermal situation in devices

The lecture, including exercises with 6 ECTS, is offered every year in the winter semester.
The teaching materials can be found in ILIAS .

This lecture can be chosen as a core and supplementary subject in various specialization subjects. 
The module highlights selected aspects of the development and construction of mechatronic systems in precision engineering. The module deals with precision engineering drive systems of various operating principles.
The focus is on:

• Magnetic technology as a basis 
  (materials, processes, constructive design, magnetization)

• Electromagnetic drives
  (rotary and linear stepper motors, calculation, design, application)

• Electrodynamic drives 
  (rotary and linear DC micromotors, calculation, design, application)

• Piezoelectric, magnetostrictive and other unconventional actuators 
  (new materials in mechatronic components, calculation, design, application)

• Examples for the realization of mechatronic solutions in precision engineering

The lecture, including exercises with 6 ECTS, will be offered divided into the winter and summer semester. It can be started both in winter and in summer.
The teaching materials can be found in ILIAS .

This lecture can be chosen as a core and supplementary subject in various specialization subjects. 
The focus of this module are the topics:

• Polymer materials

• Characteristic properties
