Laboratory

During open courses that are carried out in the rooms of our Center we use examples of damaged parts, samples of welding methods, samples with different types of surfaces etc.

During closed courses that are carried out at our Client’s premises, we additionally suggest discussing the production problems encountered in a given workplace and finding solutions. For practice, we suggest visiting the tool shop and consultation with real injection molds.
