Master Thesis: Online Process Monitoring using Pointclouds-Quality Assurance-Fiber Placement
The Fraunhofer IGCV is the first production technology Fraunhofer institute in Bavaria. We are shaping the future of efficient engineering, interconnected production, and intelligent multimaterial solutions to ensure the sustainable competitiveness of Germany and Europe. The team "Fiber Placement & Composite Molding" develops robotic processes and production methods for the production of high-performance fiber-reinforced composites (CFK). To ensure production quality, continuous process monitoring using various sensors is necessary. The sensor data can then be coupled with the machine data to obtain a digital twin of the product. We are looking for a student assistant who would like to accompany us on our further successful path, at the earliest possible date.
What you will do
⦁ Introduction to the topics process monitoring in Automated Fiber Placement
⦁ Support in the integration of sensors and cameras for data acquisition and processing
⦁ Support in post-processing (filtering, merging, etc.) and visualization of the acquired sensor data
⦁ Transfer of an existing method for determining the quality of materials from stereoscopy to the laser light-sectioning method within the thesis
⦁ Develop Methods for defect detection and classification
What you bring to the table
⦁ Currently enrolled in computer science, sensor systems, or a comparable field
⦁ Profound knowledge of the programming languages Python and/or C++
⦁ Experience in sensory and data processing
⦁ Ideally, first experience in Image and point cloud processing and analysis
⦁ Reliable and independent way of working
What you can expect
We offer flexible working hours, excellent equipment, and the opportunity to actively shape the digitization of composite production with us. As part of a friendly, motivated team, you will be involved in the realization of exciting research projects and take on responsible tasks with a high degree of creative freedom.
The weekly working time is agreed individually. This position is also available on a part-time basis. We value and promote the diversity of our employees' skills and therefore welcome all applications - regardless of age, gender, nationality, ethnic and social origin, religion, ideology, disability, sexual orientation and identity. Severely disabled persons are given preference in the event of equal suitability. Remuneration according to the general works agreement for employing assistant staff.
With its focus on developing key technologies that are vital for the future and enabling the commercial utilization of this work by business and industry, Fraunhofer plays a central role in the innovation process. As a pioneer and catalyst for groundbreaking developments and scientific excellence, Fraunhofer helps shape society now and in the future.
