The area of plastics technology has two large and modern-equipped labs. A wide selection of common processing and plastics test methods are available for the student’s education.

In the lab exercises of plastics technology, students will perform the following experiments:

Extrusion of plastics. Flow measurements, determination of characteristic lines.

 

Production of moulded parts from thermosetting moulding compounds with a hydraulic slab press. 

 

Deep drawing of semi-finished plastics with a thermoforming machine.
