The Fraunhofer Institute for Production Systems and Design Technology IPK in Berlin conducts research and development across the entire production spectrum and has state-of-the-art technologies in the field of manufacturing engineering at its disposal. The technologies and systems we develop are used industrially in both the macro and micro sectors and can be found in areas such as vehicle construction and supply, tool and mold making, aerospace technology, energy technology, machine tool and plant engineering, the printing machine industry, and the woodworking industry.
In the Manufacturing Technologies department, we work on the development, provision, and adaptation of production and manufacturing technologies for the manufacture of innovative products. We develop new machines and machining strategies on behalf of our customers, optimize existing production facilities, and implement future-oriented tool concepts. Our core competencies include machining technology, precision machining, cleaning and blasting processes, additive manufacturing, and production and machine measurement technology.
Support our team in shaping the future and become part of the IPK as soon as possible!

During component cleaning, dirt is efficiently removed using high-pressure nozzles. The aim is to optimize this process through simulation, with a particular focus on the use of innovative, 3D-printed nozzles. The simulation is validated by conducting a series of experimental tests to confirm the efficiency and effectiveness of the optimized nozzles.
