Stephan Hoja has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11173680
    Abstract: A control device, a system and methods for optimizing and providing movement profiles, wherein the movement profiles serve for determining the movement of tools of a press and the movement of a receiving element for a workpiece of a transfer system, where transfer movement profiles are synchronized with one another via press movement profiles, the synchronization of the transfer movement profiles particularly occurs by chronologically shifting synchronization points via boundary conditions such that an offset of the press movement profiles can be determined via the synchronization, so that the workpiece can be processed as quickly as possible through the system.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10551820
    Abstract: A method for calculating an optimized trajectory via a simulation program and an optimization routine, wherein the trajectory is provided via the simulation program and adapted to boundary conditions, where the method includes a loop in which, as individual steps, a first trajectory is provided, a further trajectory, and the adaptation of the further trajectory is modified based on the boundary conditions, such that the optimized trajectory is a trajectory which has been provided based on an extremal or predetermined parameter, where the optimized trajectory is provided after the calculation by a control device for moving a holder for a component, and where at least one component and the production machine are displayed in a 3D display.
