The overall budget for Fraunhofer IPK in 2022 came to € 21.8 million. Approximately € 7.7 million came from industry contract research and € 9.5 million from government funded projects. Approximately € 1.2 million came from Fraunhofer research programs.
The Production Technology Center now covers a total floor space of 10.000 m2. Numerous specialized laboratories complement a round central testing area of approximately 3200 m2. Some of these labs are equipped with powerful air conditioning technology for constant climatic conditions, while just under 100 test rigs facilitate R&D with a decided practical edge.
