Springer Production at the leading edge of technology: Proceedings of the 10th Congress of the German Academic Association for Production Technology (WGP), ... (Lecture Notes in Production Engineering)

This congress proceedings provides recent research on leading-edge manufacturing processes. The aim of this scientific congress is to work out diverse individual solutions of "production in the border area" and transferable methodological approaches. In addition, guest speakers with different backgrounds will give the congress participants food for thoughts, interpretations, views and suggestions. The manufacturing industry is currently undergoing a profound structural change, which on the one hand produces innovative solutions through the use of high-performance communication and information technology, and on the other hand is driven by new requirements for goods, especially in the mobility and energy sector. With the social discourse on how we should live and act primarily according to guidelines of sustainability, structural change is gaining increasing dynamic. It is essential to translate politically specified sustainability goals into socially accepted and marketable technical solutions. Production research is meeting this challenge and will make important contributions and provide innovative solutions from different perspectives.

Bernd-Arno Behrens studied mechanical engineering at the University of Hannover and received his doctorate in 1997 in the field of solid forming. Subsequently, he took over a leading position in industry. Since October 2003 he heads the Institute for Forming Technology and Forming Machinery. In addition, he is spokesman of the board of the Material Testing Institute for Materials and Production Technology (MPA) in Hannover since 2004. In 2005 he also assumed the function of managing partner of IPH - Institut für Integrierte Produktion + Hannover gemeinnützige GmbH. He is, among others, speaker of the Collaborative Research Center 1153 "Tailored Forming", as well as member of the SFB 653 and location speaker of the TR73. He is a member of the Scientific Council of the AIF, the Arbeitsgemeinschaft Umformtechnik and an associate member of the International Academy of Production Engineering (CIRP). Prof. Dr.-Ing. Alexander Brosius studied mechanical engineering at the Technische Fachhochschule (TFH) Berlin and received his doctorate from the TU Dortmund in 2005. Since 2012, he holds the professorship for Forming Manufacturing Processes at the TU Dresden, where he also is  Director of the Institute for Manufacturing Technology since October 2018. Prof. Dr.-Ing. Wolfgang Hintze studied mechanical engineering at the TU Braunschweig, where he became research assistant working on gear grinding and dressing. In 1985 he moved to the TU Hamburg-Harburg (TUHH) and received his doctorate in 1990 dealing with the model-based chip break assessment. Subseque
