About us
Our motivated team of young engineers from the fields of mechanical, electrical and micro-engineering loves to solve concrete problems faced by the industry.
Organisation
The Institute of Printing Technology is headed up by Karl-Heinz Selbmann and employs a team of ten or so scientific staff and assistants. Every year, two to three students complete their bachelor’s or master’s thesis at the IDT.
Partnerships
Different forms of cooperation allow us to cater to partners’ specific needs:
- Project staff from the industrial partner can undertake temporary assignments at the Institute (very welcome, whether in the context of a joint project or for training purposes)
- Research collaborations (long-term, governed by framework agreements)
- Research and development contracts (e.g. CTI projects)
- Consulting and services
