Advanced Forming of Thermoplastic Composites course
On October 23rd and 24th, an Advanced Forming of Thermoplastic Composites course will be hosted by TPRC. This two-day course offers knowledge of the press-forming technology for thermoplastic composites. We organize this course in collaboration with AniForm Engineering.
During these two days, all the ins and outs of the press-forming processes will be presented in an interactive setting. The course participants will get answers to the following questions:
- Process parameter selection based on material properties
- Effects of tool design on manufacturability and part quality
- Influence of blank handling systems on formability
- The cause of process-induced defects
- The use of predictive process simulation tools
This advanced level course is well-suited for engineers who are considering future application of thermoplastic composites and forming processes. Prior knowledge of the field of thermoplastic composites, a degree in mechanical engineering, or another engineering study is advantageous. The course includes course materials, lunches, drinks and dinner.
