Our focus is on process technology, production machines, production quality and metrology, and technology management, and ranges from the fundamentals to the digital transformation of production.<br> <br> We develop and optimize new and existing methods, technologies and processes for the production of the future. We understand production not only in its individual steps, but in the totality of all processes and interconnections between the elements of the process chain.

More efficient manufacturing processes and energy-saving machinery and equipment can help to reduce the overall cost of production. They create flexibility and resilience for companies and protect the climate and nature. However, products are only environmentally friendly as a result if they cause as few harmful emissions and waste as possible not only during production, but also while in use and at the end of their service life.<br> <br> With around 480 employees, the Fraunhofer IPT is working to make production processes, systems and products more climate-friendly and ecological: On behalf of our customers and project partners, who set out with us on the path to more sustainable and resource-conserving production.</p></div> </div> </div> </article> </div> </div> </section> </div> <div class="fhg-content-marginal fhg-grid"> <div class="fhg-grid-column-sizer"></div> <aside> <div class="teaserParsys parsys"><div data-emptytext="linklist_add_items" class="teaser__item section"><div class="fhg-grid-item teaser-default teaser-default--size-1x2 teaser-default--variant- teaser-default--color-accent teaser-default--has-image js-teaser-ellipsis"> <div class="teaser-default__content"> <a href="/en/offer/sustainability-production.html" class="teaser-default__image teaser-default__image--linked teaser-default__image--small small" style="background-image: url('/en/Profile/jcr:content/contentPar/sectioncomponent/teaserParsys/teaser_copy/image.img.2col.large.jpg/1705412582622/AdobeStock-193379987-teaser-schmal.jpg');background-position: 50% 50%" target="_self" title="Join us!"> </a><div class="teaser-default__text"> <div class="teaser-default__text-caption js-teaser-default__text-caption"> <p class="teaser-default__text-caption-copyright">漏 lovelyday12/stock.adobe.com</p> <h3 class="teaser-default__text-headline">Ways to a <br>sustainable production</h3> <div class="teaser-default__text-richtext"><p>Let us take you with us on the way to a more climate-, environmentally- and resource-friendly production!</p></div> </div> <div class="teaser-default__text-cta js-teaser-default__text-cta"> <a href="/en/offer/sustainability-production.html" class="teaser-default__text-cta--button" target="_self" title="Join us!">Join us!</a></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </aside> </div> </div></div> <div data-emptytext="teaser_overview_parsys_hint" class="teaser section"><div class="sep sectionseparator"><script data-scf-json="true" type='application/json' id='/en/Profile/jcr:content/contentPar/teaser_overview_copy/sep'>{"id":"/en/Profile/jcr:content/contentPar/teaser_overview_copy/sep","resourceType":"fraunhofer/components/sectionseparator","url":"/en/Profile/_jcr_content/contentPar/teaser_overview_copy/sep.social.json","friendlyUrl":"/en/Profile.html"}</script><div class="fhg-section-separator"></div> </div> <div class="fhg-grid teaser-layout "> <div class="fhg-grid-item teaser-layout__title invisible"> <h2 class="teaser-layout__title-headline fragment" id="I946d"></h2> </div> <div class="fhg-grid teaser-layout--masonry js-teaser-layout--masonry" data-config-masonry='{"horizontalOrder":false}'> <div class="fhg-grid-column-sizer"></div> <div class="teaserPar parsys"><div data-emptytext="linklist_add_items" class="teaser__item section"><div class="fhg-grid-item teaser-default teaser-default--size-2x2 teaser-default--variant- teaser-default--color-green teaser-default--has-image js-teaser-ellipsis"> <div class="teaser-default__content"> <a href="/en/Profile/departments.html" class="teaser-default__image teaser-default__image--linked teaser-default__image--large large" style="background-image: url('/en/Profile/jcr:content/contentPar/teaser_overview_copy/teaserPar/teaser/image.img.3col.large.jpg/1607512506383/IPT-5909.jpg');background-position: 50% 50%" title="Departments"> </a><div class="teaser-default__text"> <div class="teaser-default__text-caption js-teaser-default__text-caption"> <p class="teaser-default__text-caption-copyright">漏 Fraunhofer IPT</p> <h3 class="teaser-default__text-headline">Das Fraunhofer IPT im Profil</h3> </div> <div class="teaser-default__text-cta js-teaser-default__text-cta"> <ul class="teaser-default__text-cta--list fhg-list arrowed-list"> <li class="linkComponent section"><a href="/en/Profile/departments.html" class="" title="Departments">Departments</a></li> <li class="linkComponent section"><a href="/en/Profile/BoardofTrustees.html" class="" title="Board of trustees">Board of trustees</a></li> <li class="linkComponent section"><a href="/en/Profile/History.html" class="" title="History">History</a></li> <li class="linkComponent section"><a href="/en/Profile/MissionStatement.html" class="" title="Mission statement">Mission statement</a></li> <li class="linkComponent section"><a href="/en/Profile/cooperation.html" class="" title="Networks &amp;
