The growing number of complex applications in injection moulding can no longer be solved with the familiar special processes alone. Combination technologies are available as problem solvers for this. With combination technologies, in which injection moulding is merged with other established and previously separate techniques into a closed inline process, the complex requirements arising from combinations of targeted functionalities can be met for demanding moulded parts, while logistics and assembly steps are eliminated.
In the 2017 summer semester, Hans Wobbe is once again giving a lecture on this topic at RWTH Aachen University (www.rwth-aachen.de), based on the book “Combination Technologies Based on the Injection Moulding Process” (“Kombinationstechnologien auf Basis des Spritzgießverfahrens”) published by Hanser Verlag, Munich.
