Abstract: A method for optimizing forming processes for forming workpieces, in which information characterizing a relative position of a workpiece inserted in a forming device in relation to at least one reference point of the forming device is detected by means of an optical detection device, wherein at least one parameter for adjusting the respective forming process for forming the respective workpiece is determined during a respective forming process, depending on the information detected during the respective forming process and depending on the information detected during the previous forming processes performed prior to the respective forming process and stored in an electronic computing device.

Abstract: A method for producing a device includes, by an electronic computing unit, determining a nominal value of a nominal property of the device to be produced and/or of a movement apparatus for moving the device in space. By the electronic computing unit, comparing the nominal value with actual values of a property of respective already produced devices and/or of an already produced movement apparatus, where a respective difference between the nominal value and the respective actual value is determined in the comparing. By the electronic computing unit, displaying an item of information on an electronic display, where the information characterizes one of the already produced devices, where one of the actual values belongs to the one device characterized by the information, and where one of the differences was determined on a basis of the one actual value belonging to the device characterized by the information.
