4th International Conference on Thermal Issues in Machine Tools (ICTIMT2025)

Beschreibung

This open access conference proceedings contains all the papers presented at ICTIMT 2024, the 4th International Conference on Thermal Issues in Machine Tools. The precision of machine tools is primarily affected by their thermal behavior. Over the past two decades, it has become clear that simply placing machines in a temperature-controlled environment is not the most efficient solution. Instead, machine tool manufacturers are responsible for minimizing the misbehavior of their machines under normal job shop conditions. This requires a profound understanding of the energy conversion within the machine, prominently in the process zone, but also the different drives the guiding systems and the auxiliary devices. Thermal analysis and modeling of machines have become indispensable for implementing numerical corrections and compensations. Additionally, model-based corrections contribute actively to energy savings and sustainability, as they can reduce or eliminate the need for air conditioning without compromising precision. Research organizations and machine tool industries worldwide are highly interested in developing industrially viable solutions to further enhance precision. However, the modeling task is becoming increasingly challenging as precision requirements continue to rise. This book gathers the latest international research results in the analysis and compensation of machine tools.

Autor

Konrad Wegener is since 1st of August 2023 Senior Advisor of the Swiss technology transfer center inspire AG. From October 2003 til July 2023 he was full professor and head of the IWF (Institut of machine tools and manufacturing) at ETH Zurich and headed different sections of inspire AG. Fields of research are today optimization of machine tools, cyberphysical production systems, cutting technology, additive manufacturing, laser material processing and electro discharge machining. He is fellow of the CIRP. After his studies in mechanical engineering and PHD in Braunschweig 1990 he began his industrial carreer at Schuler Presses GmbH & Co. KG in Göppingen as head of design and layout planning departments. In 1999 he became general manager of a newly acquired company for laser systems. Under his leadership large welding machines for shipbuilding and construction of aeroplanes, welding and cutting machines for the automotive industry and cutters for fabric have been developed and built. Markus Bambach is since 1 February 2020 Full Professor of Advanced Manufacturing at ETH Zurich and heads the Advanced Manufacturing Laboratory. In August 2023, he took over the lead of the Institute of Machine Tools and Manufacturing (IWF) from Prof. Konrad Wegener in the Department of Mechanical and Process Engineering (D-MAVT). Since 2024 he additionally serves ETH Zurich as Vice Rector for Study Programmes. Prof. Bambach earned a Dipl.-Ing. in Materials Science from Saarland University (2002), a Dr.-Ing. in Mechanical Engineering (2008) and a Habilitation (2014) from RWTH Aachen. After having served as senior engineer at the Institute of Metal Forming, RWTH Aachen, he has been appointed Full Professor for Mechanical Design and Manufacturing at Brandenburg University of Technology Cottbus–Senftenberg (BTU) in 2015. Fields of research today include additive and hybrid manufacturing, metal forming, sintering, the development of power materials, cyber-physical production systems and AI-driven optimisation of machines and manufacturing processes. He is an Associate Member of the International Academy for Production Engineering (CIRP) and active in various networks on smart and sustainable manufacturing.
