What our colleagues have to say

Anna-Lena Hölß

Former student on a dual study course, Loh Services

Artificial Intelligence is changing the world. As a new colleague, she is currently taking her first steps in production – alongside, among others, dual study course student Anna-Lena Hölß. In the context of her industrial engineering degree, she had worked with colleague Jan Philip Müller from Rittal on the “Visual AI” project, in which a camera equipped with artificial intelligence carries out quality controls in production. “The AI system of the camera can decide in seconds whether there’s an accessory missing, for example, or whether a part needs to be rejected or reworked due to scratches, soiling or blemishes in its coating,” Jan Philip Müller explains. A significant advantage – thanks to AI as co-worker in the factory.

Tim Plaßmann

Student on a dual study course, LKH

A green mission: At LKH, our junior staff are directly involved in developing solutions for sustainable plastic. Tim Plaßmann, for instance, had to tackle a tough task in his second practical phase project: He developed a tool to calculate the carbon footprint of LKH products. The tool is currently undergoing a test phase and will then be verified by an independent body. This is a big step towards a small footprint in plastics processing – true to the motto: don’t just talk, make it happen.
