At TPAC, we work on 3D printing large-scale objects. When making these objects, it is important to ensure that they are strong enough and an important property here is the layer adhesion; how well the layers stick together. In this assignment, you will focus on testing this property. There are multiple ways to [...]
The TPAC research group studies new manufacturing methods using thermoplastic composite materials, often in the form of prepreg tapes (fibres pre-impregnated with a polymer). These tapes are bonded by melting their surfaces and pressing them together. The quality of consolidation (combining layers into a solid laminate) depends on factors like tape quality, polymer [...]
Soort opdracht Stageopdracht Organisatie: TPAC Contactpersoon: Bert Weteringe Email contactpersoon: b.j.weteringe@saxion.nl Studierichtingen: Werktuigbouwkunde niveau MBO/HBO TPAC richt zich op het ontwikkelen van kosten efficiënte technologieën voor de verwerking van vezel versterkte thermoplastische kunststoffen. Thermoplasten kenmerken zich doordat ze, eenmaal in gesmolten toestand, gevormd kunnen worden. Dit [...]
