  • ​​​​​​​Electrical Engineering: Electrical plan development incl. trouble shooting, control electronic components, wire control cabinets, set and control frequency inverter

 

Thesis / final projects

Motivation:

STIWA Austria manufactures approximately 600,000 milled and turned parts in small batches and as individual pieces. The current quality assurance process requires the help of many employees. The testing concept, transport of test parts, and feedback of findings are labor-intensive processes that depend on employees.

Tasks:

  • Create an automation concept for the 3D coordinate measuring machine.
  • Create a concept for the automated transport, storage, and handling of test parts.
  • Develop a concept for providing feedback on measurement rejections to machine operators.

Objectives:

  • Evaluation and presentation of a solution for subsequent changeover of the entire machinery
  • System proposal for new installation of a new manufacturing site (new building onto the green field)
  • Worldwide operation in the STIWA Group Business area Manufacturing
