Plastics course
The plastics course is aimed at professionals working with plastic part development, injection moulds and injection moulding processes, as well as others who work with plastic products in their daily activities and would benefit from a stronger technical understanding.
About the course
A solid technical understanding of plastics and injection moulding
The course provides a solid technical understanding of plastics and injection moulding, with particular focus on injection-moulded parts and the many factors that affect quality, function and production. The course content can be adapted to the participants' needs.
The course also covers important guidelines for developing high-quality plastic parts. Typical problems and defects are reviewed together with their causes, practical solutions and preventive actions.
The course takes a practical approach and is not heavily focused on theory, formulas or calculations. The emphasis is on understanding:
What happens – why does it happen – and how can it be solved?
