Your project, our expertise
The bilateral and multilateral project work at the TPRC contributes to a proper fundamental understanding of thermoplastic composites and drives innovation. The expertise and laboratory at the TPRC facilitates many different projects related to thermoplastic composites processing technologies, such as (out-of-autoclave) consolidation, fiber placement, forming, tailored blanks, overmolding, compression molding, recycling, welding and hybrid joints. Possible research and development topics include:
- Material characterization under processing conditions
- Mechanical testing of thermoplastic composites
- Development of predictive models and simulation tools
- Process simulation and optimization
- Development of processing guidelines
- Tool design and demonstrator development
- See other research topics
We can be an extension of your R&D department.
