Latest Patents

The supplied information identifies one patent for Ziegerer: “Method for Planning, Constructing and/or Maintaining a Pipeline System and Data Processing System Therefor.” The invention describes a method for selecting materials and pipe components for pipeline sections. It uses stored material and component data alongside line parameters to determine permissible stress, an external diameter, and a minimum wall thickness. The method then selects the next larger available wall thickness and generates a defined pipe class for the section. This supports consistent, selective, and less error-prone component selection, with a data-processing system provided to carry out the method. Ziegerer is credited with 1 patent in the supplied data.

Career Highlights

Ziegerer’s documented invention applies data processing to pipeline engineering. By organizing line parameters, material properties, and component specifications into a structured selection process, the method aims to support planning and component choice across pipeline sections.

Collaborations

The supplied information lists Erwin Rusitschka and Ernst-Eckhardt Pöschel as Ziegerer’s coworkers. It does not specify their roles in the patent or describe particular collaborative contributions.

Conclusion

Manfred Ziegerer’s recorded patent focuses on using structured data and automated selection to improve pipeline-system planning and component specification.
