The Chair for Individualized Production is proud to be one of the five finalists for this year’s KUKA Innovation Award.
The COVID-19 pandemic and social distancing are increasing our reliance on remote work. However, the impact of online tools for the construction industry is limited. Team CRC from the Chair for Individualized Production / RWTH Aachen University & Robots in Architecture Research is therefore integrating automation technology into online collaboration. Cloud Remote Control enables users to run robots, monitor processes and adapt tool paths from the comfort of their home or international office. This increases accessibility to worldwide robotic production, adding layers of Industrie 4.0 device communication and artificial intelligence to path planning. In this way, Cloud Remote Control empowers teams to remain safely at a distance while still collaborating closely on automated construction.
We are happy to announce the final presentation of our second batch of students of the international Master of Construction & Robotics (CR). Once again, we invite a top-class industry jury to represent the board members of the CR programme and our premium members of the Center Construction Robotics, to help guide the concepts and the developments on the reference construction site on the RWTH Aachen Campus West.
We look forward to seeing you all and to the presentations.
Start the year with a current discussions between politics, science and practice and join the daily livestream of STUDIO Bund from 13.1. until 15.1. 2021 at 12:00 – 13:00, organized by the Federal Ministry of the Interior, Building and Community (BMI) together with the Federal Institute for Research on Building, Urban Affairs and Spatial Development (BBSR).

As part of the “Pilot project for a research and education center for construction processes and construction machinery in the Rhine Revier”, IP and ifas employees visited the Oberhausen intercompany training centre of the Bauindustrieverband NRW at the beginning of December. The aim of the project meeting was to get a look at the most modern construction machinery simulators that are operated there for training purposes. Also a teaching concept for digital construction processes was discussed, which is to be implemented and evaluated in 2021 at the reference construction site Campus West in test courses with students from ABZ Kerpen. The students were already involved in finding suitable teaching content through an online survey.
We are looking for highly motivated people for research and development in digital construction.
Do you have a master’s degree in civil engineering, economics or similar disciplines? Are you excited about robotics, building machineries, lean construction and BIM? Do you think you can you lead industrial projects in digital construction? Join our interdisciplinary research group at RWTH Aachen!
We provide an unique construction testing field in Aachen West for digital construction solution, expertises in the various fields of engineering, architecture and computer science and the opportunity for a Ph.D. in on-site logistics.
