Colin Reiff serves as a Research Assistant at the Institute for Control Engineering of Machine Tools and Manufacturing Units at the University of Stuttgart, focusing on advanced manufacturing systems and process optimization. His work bridges theoretical research with industrial applications in automotive, aerospace, and general production contexts. His research interests center on process control and optimization in multi-stage production systems and Additive Manufacturing (Powder Bed Fusion Processes) . Reiff has developed innovative approaches for zero-defect manufacturing, particularly through smart centering methods for rotation-symmetric parts and automated vision data systems using collaborative robots. His work demonstrates how dimensional deviations can be compensated during production rather than detected at final inspection. Analysis of his publication record from 2018-2024 reveals consistent focus on manufacturing innovation, with increasing emphasis on data-driven approaches, software-defined manufacturing, and sustainable production. His research spans both theoretical frameworks and practical implementations, with several solutions transitioning to industrial applications. Reiff actively supervises student theses and practical experiments, including the "Simulation of a feed axis closed loop control with MATLAB/Simulink" laboratory course. His work has been supported through EU-funded projects like ForZDM under Horizon2020 and the High-Performance Center "Mass Personalization" in Stuttgart. His research group operates within the University of Stuttgart's manufacturing ecosystem, contributing to initiatives like the "Stuttgarter Maschinenfabrik" - a fully digitalized production environment for customer-individualized products. This environment leverages digital twins and new technological infrastructure to enable application development freedom and machine park flexibility.
