Plastic & Composites Applications in Mechanics
Home    /    Training List    /    One-Off

Polymers, as plastics or composites, offer numerous advantages in weight, fatigue resistance, and corrosion resistance.

Come and learn about the potential of materials in the mechanical industry to be able to list the advantages and disadvantages of the main polymer families and know how to choose the right process based on the types of pieces, while having an informed look at the environmental impact.
