Dr. Kirk Cantor, Penn College professor emeritus, presents course topics in a multimedia format supplemented by electronic materials. This lecture is supplemented by hands-on training (approximately 50% of the course) including use of extrusion industry equipment: single-screw extruder, twin-screw extruder, blown film line, injection molder, melt indexer, and tensile tester.
It was a great overview led by knowledgeable professionals that provided deep dive responses when presented with real world applications questions.
