IVB - Manufacturing engineering
Manufacturing engineering
The Department of Manufacturing and Civil engineering has a good cooperation with regional and national industrial clusters and business. The spearhead here is the Raufoss cluster (NCE Raufoss) and Sintef Raufoss Manufacturing (SRM). Cooperation with NTNU, SRM and about 15 companies at Raufoss under the auspices of the Center for Research-based Innovation "SFI Manufacturing", is a central and prioritized activity in the department.
Main topics for research
Measuring systems
The group covers quality technology and measurement technology using coordinate measurement technology, CT scanning, machine vision technology and sensors and sensor technology. Further wireless communication of sensor signals and signal processing and sensor fusion. The group also covers tolerance synthesis and definitions, variation management, measurement of uncertainty analysis and measurement system assessment.
