The four-day seminar is aimed at specialists from grinding technology, production, service, work preparation, and sales. In terms of content, it spans the range from conventional and ultra-hard grinding tools to dressing and influencing parameters in grinding, all the way to metrology, process monitoring, coolants and lubricants, and roughness measurement. In doing so, it addresses precisely the technological fundamentals that determine process reliability, quality, and robustness in practice.

For us, this is the decisive point: grinding technology needs not only innovation at the top, but also depth at the base. Anyone who wants to improve processes, safeguard quality, and unlock technological potential must master the fundamentals. This applies not only to development and engineering, but equally to production, operation, service, and technical consulting. In this sense, further training is not an add-on. It is a prerequisite.

The fact that KSF consistently designs this seminar as a combination of theory and practice makes the difference. The theoretical content is complemented by practical demonstrations in the laboratory. Work is carried out in small groups, with room for questions, discussion, and concrete application-oriented exchange. The seminar is accompanied by Prof. Dr.-Ing. Bahman Azarhoushang as well as renowned specialists from industry. It is precisely this proximity between scientific classification and industrial application that makes formats like this so valuable.

This year, too, the participants will once again be visiting us as part of the seminar. For us, such encounters are more than just a program item. They create space for insights, for conversations, and for direct exchange between theory, research, and industrial practice. This is exactly where grinding technology becomes tangible: not abstract, but concrete. Not detached, but in context.

We are already looking forward to welcoming KSF and all participants back to our site in Trossingen in 2026 and wish them an insightful, well-founded, and practice-oriented seminar.
