Part‑time employment may be possible.

Your responsibility

The honing of cylindrical functional surfaces is a critical process in the manufacturing chain, as it enables the production of high-quality component surfaces that meet the demanding requirements of various industries, including mechanical and plant engineering, automotive and supply chain, hydraulics, pneumatics, aerospace, and medical technology. However, the capabilities of currently available honing tools are being pushed to their limits. Notably, the honing of blind hole drillings poses significant challenges with existing tools, resulting in high production costs. To address this issue, a research project will be conducted in collaboration with an industrial partner to develop an innovative honing tool that utilizes additively manufactured honing stones.

The scope of activities includes the following aspects:

• Research the innovative field of honing blind hole bores
• Planning, executing and analysis of experimental research to gain a deeper understanding of the relationships between process parameters, tool design, and surface finish during longitudinal stroke honing
• Development of a predictive model for designing honing tools that can accommodate the specific demands of the honing blind hole bores
• Collaboration in research activities of the chair
• Collaboration, coordination and organisation of research projects in close cooperation with industrial companies, research associations and scientific partners
• Presentation of research results to industry representatives and scientists at national and international conferences
