About
Axel von Freyberg is a leading researcher in advanced manufacturing, specializing in robotic incremental sheet forming (ISF) and precision metrology. His work addresses a critical challenge in flexible forming: the inherent low stiffness and positioning uncertainty of industrial robots, which cause geometrical deviations in final parts. To solve this, von Freyberg has developed innovative contributions that both increase forming accuracy and reduce process forces, as detailed in his highly cited 2025 work on robot-based two-point incremental forming. A key enabler of his approach is the use of optical in-process measurement, exemplified by his development of a shadow imaging sensor for real-time tool pose measurement, achieving a measuring uncertainty of less than 50 micrometers. With over 5 citations across his most-cited papers, von Freyberg’s research is foundational for the next generation of flexible, high-precision robotic manufacturing. His work bridges the gap between robot flexibility and the stringent accuracy demands of sheet metal forming, making him a pivotal figure in the field of automated, adaptive manufacturing processes.
