The Institute for Production Metrology (IPROM) combines teaching and research in the field of metrology. The focus is on the acquisition of geometric quantities. Fields of application can be found in all phases of the product creation process, from development and design to use in automated production facilities. The focus is on optical measurement techniques, either alone or in combination with other measurement techniques in multi-sensor arrangements. Within a holistic view of industrial production, metrology is integrated into quality management.
