Welcome to the Professorship of Machine Tool Design and Forming Technology
The Professorship of Machine Tool Design and Forming Technology at the Institute for Machine Tools and Production Processes (IWP) of Chemnitz University of Technology, established in 1956, has developed into an efficient and recognized research and training facility for production technology in Germany.
Our work focuses on teaching and research in the field of production technology. In the four teaching and research divisions "Machine Tools", "Manufacturing Engineering / Cutting", "Process Informatics / Virtual Product Development" and "Control and Feedback Control Technology", our researchers interdisciplinarily deal with topics that can be assigned to the strategic goals of Industry 4.0 and resource efficiency in production. Areas of application are primarily mechanical engineering, the automotive and supplier industry as well as medical technology.
The Chemnitz University of Technology has taken far-reaching measures to protect employees, students, project partners and the general public from the corona virus.
That is why the scientists of the Professorship of Machine Tool Design and Forming Technology are currently mainly working in home office. Nevertheless, we are more than happy to assist you with any questions concerning research and studies. You can reach us via phone and e-mail, as usual. For information on digital courses offered by our professorship, please visit the OPAL learning platform.
