Two-day Seminar
About the Seminar
In this seminar, our seminar instructor Bernhard Richter will introduce you to the most important test methods for incoming goods and qualification tests. Over a total of two days, you will learn how the properties and media resistance of elastomers are determined and how the components themselves are tested.
You will also get an overview which extended material tests are useful for seals. A guided tour through our accredited test laboratory in Großbottwar completes the seminar and gives all participants the opportunity to familiarise with the actual application of the test methods.
Upcoming seminar date: 03 – 04 December 2024
Seminar date in 2025: 02 – 03 December 2025
Seminar fee: 1,195 Euro + VAT
Venue: Training centre Elastomer Training Richter, Reinhold-Würth-Straße 5, 74360 Ilsfeld
