At the end of the 1970s, a state project for the promotion of process control and measurement in production on machine tools was started by the RWTH Aachen University. In doing so, Brankamp took the idea of the tachometer to a higher level in machine tools.
The purpose of this process monitoring / ProcessMonitoring technology should serve the avoidance of errors, the better utilization of the machines and the higher utilization of the plants.
