Engineer · Lecturer · Process Builder
From application to a robust process.
I combine additive manufacturing, reverse engineering and 3D scanning with DfAM, process development, quality and clear technical knowledge transfer.
APPLICATION / 001
Hands-on mindset with systems thinkingTest technology in practice, translate it into clear workflows and anchor it sustainably in organisations.

// 01 Profile
Technology only creates value when it works in daily practice.
For more than ten years, I have worked at the intersection of product development, production and emerging manufacturing technologies. My focus is where an idea needs to become a reliable component, and a one-off solution needs to become a controlled process.
Field work / digital captureBerlin
I analyse real applications, develop digital workflows, structure approvals and quality requirements, and enable the people who will use them. As a freelance lecturer at Berliner Hochschule für Technik , I connect industrial practice with clear, application-oriented teaching.
// 02 Focus areas
Where I make the strongest contribution.
My strength is not an isolated technology. I connect the application, design, manufacturing and organisation into a coherent and understandable process.
FOCUS01
Additive Manufacturing & DfAM
Develop parts for the process, assess applications, select materials and workflows, and integrate AM into product development, production and spare-parts supply.
FOCUS02
Reverse Engineering & 3D Scanning
Capture real installation situations, digitise existing parts and create reliable reference geometry for design, comparison and variant management.
FOCUS03
Process Development & Industrialisation
Turn experiments into repeatable workflows through roles, approvals, documentation, quality checks, training and continuous improvement.
FOCUS04
Teaching, Workshops & Technical Transfer
Make complex technology understandable and usable, from management workshops to practical operator training.
// 03 Practice & publications
Applications, education and technical exchange.
I enjoy working where a technical opportunity is tested against a real task and translated into an understandable, viable workflow.
Case study · Special vehicle manufacturing
Digital reference geometry instead of laborious manual adjustment.
At Apprich Secur, the potential integration of 3D scanning, reverse engineering and additive manufacturing into armoured cash-in-transit vehicle production was explored. The focus was on custom interiors, new interference geometry and small production volumes.
Starting pointChanging vehicle platforms, high customisation and time-consuming manual measurement.
ApproachDigitally capture the actual interior and use it as a reliable basis for design and variant comparison.
PotentialLess rework, easier changes and reproducible components for one-offs and small series.
Publication · Revopoint
3D scanning in hands-on engineering education
Revopoint reports on a BHT teaching project in which students connect 3D scanning, reverse engineering, 3D printing and laser cutting in an open development challenge.

Short talk · Formnext 2025
Lessons from 3D scanning, applications and education
At the Revopoint booth, I shared insights from practical scanning tasks and teaching, focusing on learning curves, common errors and pragmatic entry points into digital workflows.

Talks, workshops and technical exchange.
Three opportunities to discuss additive applications, reverse engineering, materials and robust industrial processes.
Würzburg · AdditivX
Additively manufactured spare parts and supply chains
A talk on spare parts, availability and a pragmatic starting point: begin not with the large, shiny lighthouse project, but with the small parts that make everyday work easier.
Linz · 3rd SME Network Meeting FDM 3D Printing
More than copying an existing part: Reverse engineering as a product-development tool
Workshop: From digital capture and functional analysis to targeted design improvements.
Frankfurt · Formnext
New materials and applications for industrial AM
Looking for new materials, applications and opportunities across prototyping, tooling, manufacturing and spare parts, with a focus on rail applications and EN 45545-2.
// 05 Working together
Open to concrete projects and the right long-term role.
This is not a conventional agency portfolio. It shows the technical questions and change initiatives where a conversation may be useful.
Contact
A technical challenge is usually best discussed in concrete terms.
I welcome professional exchange, project enquiries and conversations about roles that combine process development, engineering and knowledge transfer.
