Werkstatt & IT

Overall management workshops, engineering- & IT-department:
Dr. Armin Teltschik

The integrated mechanical workshop of the IRS is a joint workshop for the chairs of the IRS as well as for the Institute of Biomedical Engineering (IBT). The workshop is responsible for the construction, maintenance and repair of the electrical and mechanical facilities. Together with the scientific staff and graduate students, respective projects are realized and existing equipment is regularly checked.

 

Mechanical Workshop

From the idea to the finished structure. As a research workshop, the project ideas of the scientists, which are usually only described in sketches, are checked by us for feasibility and modeled in 3D CAD. The construction by skilled workers, who later also program the CNC machines, guarantees an optimal manufacturing process. Different materials such as metal, wood, carbon, plastic are used depending on the requirements for an optimal end product.
