For 10 years, offer the DECHEMA and Prof. Dr.-Ing. Marko Zlokarnik
together courses on mixing technology and scale up to. The issues
remain for process technicians and engineers is extremely important.
This year the courses are offered for the last time under the
direction of M. Zlokarnik.
Scale-Up for technical chemists and biotechnologists
17./18.10.2011, Frankfurt am Main
The technical chemists, chemical engineers and process engineers have
to deal generally with the technical implementation of procedures that
are linked where chemical (or microbiological), chemical changes with
the mass, heat and momentum transfer and therefore on a small scale
(laboratory or pilot plant scale) behave differently than in the large

New perspectives through Six Sigma

The group Tonfunk Ermsleben sets for a year at the Six Sigma management system and with great success: the first-phase project to cost savings brought in six figures.

Tonfunk has big plans. The EMS provider wants to increase its sales by 2015 to 100 million euros. With 25 percent revenue increase over the previous year, the group has set the ambitious growth target in mind. "We are" on track to Tonfunk-chief Norman gate is secure. Currently, the company invested in an additional 2000-square-foot manufacturing building inusurance and in new automation techniques, surface facilities, and X-ray inspection systems. So despite revenue growth rather than the quality remains on track, working the Tonfunk group since a year now on the integration of Six Sigma management system and this is for a medium-sized EMS provider definitely something special, because what in corporations is normalcy long, had been in the middle class more of a novelty. For many years, renowned customers rely on the quality of Tonfunk group. All processes, from development through production to service, are structured according to international quality assurance standards, according to TS 16949 certified by TUV Rheinland. The Six Sigma program goes further and focuses more on customer needs. That the entire group Tonfunk designed Six Sigma quality management after a year shows already considerable success. For a total of five projects, which were processed in the first phase by July 2011, are the results. And that can be seen: Tonfunk has already realized savings in the six figures.

We do offer courses in lean manufacturing, please visit the web sites and make contact in case you are interested into lean manufacturing or lean thinking, kaizen, pull, etc.

Where are all the engineers gone?

Nowhere is manifested more clearly than the skills shortage among engineers. In July, a gap between supply and demand of nearly 36,000 gaped. The industry is now promoting to women, since only one in five is female engineering student.

"The prices have gone clear," says Werner Maidl. The personnel manager of the Munich architectural and engineering Obermeyer knows what he's talking about. The office employs 1,200 people and offers design services in the business buildings, transport and the environment. New, good people are always in demand. But engineers are scarce.

In particular, construction and electrical engineers or specialists for the technical equipment of buildings. "To have up to 15 percent, the starting salaries for young engineers in the past three years increases," said Maidl. More than that: It is increasingly difficult to keep good engineers. Time and again, "says the personnel manager that there was attempts to poach them.

quality engineering course

This volume contains virtually all the information an engineer would need to function as a quality engineer. The author covers management methods and statistical methods of quality in an integrative manner –  unlike other books on the subject, which focus primarily on one of the two areas of quality. Illustrates the use of quality methods with many real world examples drawn from the author’s consulting work. Helps students understand and solve real problems with mini projects throughout. Uses a reader-friendly writing style that makes material more approachable and encourages self-study. Covers the must-know fundamentals of probability and statistics in one chapter (Chapter 2). Makes extensive use of computer software to illustrate the use of
