Successful master defense & reinforcement for the IPM
We would like to congratulate Manuel Isensee, M.Eng. on the successful defense of his Master's thesis.
In his thesis entitled "Simulation of a representative dismantling process in the context of a greenhouse-neutral circular economy", he developed a concept and a methodology for the automated dismantling of large-volume components. With the help of modern simulation tools, it was possible to show how complex dismantling paths can be designed efficiently in order to enable the pure return of recyclable materials to the material cycle.
Bridge between simulation and practice
The Master's thesis represents a central building block in the CircEcon research project. Particularly noteworthy are
- the development of a digital twin for manual and automated disassembly processes,
- the validation of robot-based disassembly processes,
- the design of specialized processing strategies for lightweight materials such as CFRP and GFRP.
Continuity in research
We are particularly pleased that the successful collaboration with the Master's defense is not coming to an end: Manuel Isensee will be joining the IPM as a research assistant. In this role, he will translate the theoretical results of his work into practical applications and actively help shape the development of the research facility at the site.
We warmly welcome Manuel Isensee to the team and look forward to working together on innovative and sustainable production technologies of the future.
