Joachim Heinzl

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Joachim Lothar Heinzl (born September 6, 1940 in Aussig ) is a German engineer .

Heinzl was Professor and 1st Vice President at the Technical University of Munich and has retired since October 2005. He is considered a pioneer in drop-on-demand ink printing technology . In the 1970s at Siemens in Munich, he developed the first commercially successful ink printer based on the drop-on-demand principle, the Siemens PT80i . Of this, more than a million devices were sold.

Life

In the years 1950–1959 Joachim Heinzl attended the Luitpold-Oberrealschule in Munich , in the following 5 years, until 1965, he devoted himself to studying general mechanical engineering at the TH Munich . His doctorate in electroacoustics followed in 1966/1967 at the Technical University of Munich, he was a scholarship holder of the Fritz Thyssen Foundation.

From 1968 to 1974 he was employed in the central laboratory for data technology at Siemens AG in Munich, from 1970 Heinzl was head of the laboratory and from 1973 laboratory group leader. In 1970 he also received his doctorate in engineering ( Dr.-Ing. ), The subject of his dissertation was the hydraulics of the inner ear and hearing theories. A year later, from 1971, Heinzl also had a teaching position at the Technical University of Munich for transmission theory. From 1975 to 1978 he was the main researcher responsible for the development of mechanical printers, punched tape and magnetic tape devices, dot matrix printers and non-mechanical printing processes.

In 1978 a full professorship at the chair for precision engineering at the Technical University of Munich followed with the research areas of microsystem technology (especially microactuators for ink printing), low-noise aerostatic bearings, ultra-precision machining, laser measurement technology and - together with Prof. Brandenburg - stepper motors and servo drive technology, more than fifty publications and one hundred Patent applications and patents emerged from this time. Heinzl held the chair until 2005. During this time, as vice dean and dean of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at the Technical University of Munich, he was intensively involved in the planning of the new faculty in Garching.

In the period from 1995 to 2002 he was 1st Vice President of the Technical University of Munich, the focus of his work was on the expansion and connection of the Garching site. Also since 1995, Joachim Heinzl has been the spokesman for the working group of technical colleges and technical universities in Germany for five years ( ARGE TU / TH). From 2006 to 2011 he was President of the Bavarian Research Foundation .

Other activities and honors

In 1979 Heinzl became scientific director of the F & M magazine of the Hanser publishing house . He works on guidelines for the development methodology in device technology in the VDI / VDE Society for Micro and Precision Engineering, and in 1994 he received the VDI plaque of honor.

He is also Deputy Ombudsman at the Technical University of Munich and Liaison Lecturer at the DFG .

Joachim Heinzl has been spokesman for the advisory board of the Munich Business Plan Competition (MBPW) since 1998 , and in May 1999 he was co-founder and partner of Generis GmbH, which was renamed voxeljet in January 2004 .

On December 2, 2002, he received the Heinz Maier Leibnitz Medal from the Technical University of Munich for “pioneering research in the field of microtechnology, especially the perfecting of air bearing technology, the development of processes for drop-on-demand ink printing and rapid prototyping , as well as for his extraordinary services to the further development of the university ”, in the following year the Aachen and Munich Prize for Technology and Applied Natural Sciences of the Carl Arthur Pastor Foundation in Aachen.

In January 2006 he became President of the Bavarian Research Foundation, one month later he was awarded an honorary doctorate (Dr.-Ing. E. h.) By the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Hanover.

On July 27, 2009, he was presented with the Federal Cross of Merit on ribbon (awarded April 2009).

Heinzl is a member of the German Academy of Science and Engineering acatech .
