The Plastics Manufacturing Center at Penn College is host this week to the three-day Extrusion Seminar & Hands-On Workshop. The annual event, which attracts industry members from across the nation, combines the expertise of well-known extrusion consultant Chris Rauwendaal and Penn College's Kirk M. Cantor, professor of plastics and polymer technology, with the training capabilities and industry-equipped facilities of the college's plastics and polymer technology department. Rauwendaal presents course topics in a multimedia format, and Cantor leads participants in hands-on training, including use of the college's extrusion and testing equipment.
