Develop skills
- Interpret polymer datasheets to quickly extract melt temperatures, MFI, and processing limits.
- Optimise blow moulding by tuning parison, mould cooling, and wall thickness in practice.
- Fine-tune film extrusion by setting die, screw, and cooling for stable gauge and width.
- Diagnose defects swiftly by linking gels, haze, warpage, and leaks to root causes.
- Reduce costs and energy by comparing extrusion versus blow moulding for efficient, sustainable output.
