Internship precision prototyping

This internship aims to investigate external influences on the precision manufacturing capability of prototypes in our department and translate findings into suggestions for improvement. You will perform a Cost-Benefit analysis of climate and vibration control measures to facilitate future decision making
Situational background

Our CNC machine setup consists of high-speed milling, Wire EDM, Micro turning, and Laser ablation. Currently, we perform CNC machining without considering environmental parameters such as temperature control, vibration isolation, etc. Our goal is to achieve a higher level of accuracy with our current CNC machine setup. Therefore, we want to understand the impact of environmental parameters.
Your role:

You're the right fit if:
1. You are currently pursuing a degree (at the University or University of Applied Sciences level) in the field of Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering & Management or related. Preferably looking for a graduation assignment.

2. You have some experience in machining or at a minimum a deep passion for metal part making.

3. You have a skillset that fits a Research and Development environment and have an affinity for production machines
