Key competence – Development of machine systems
from concept to prototype

In the development of machine systems, IBAF assumes responsibility for an agreed work package.  We work for machine and component manufacturers and support users in system integration and optimisation. IBAF brings comprehensive methodology and project management expertise to the partnership as well as specific product know-how. Acting as a systems partner, we adopt a holistic approach extending from concept to production drawing, and from specification-aligned design to component test in the laboratory or metrological analysis in the field. Control and drive technology are invariably integral components of our project work.
