Thermoplastic composites

Thermoplastic composites have traditionally been discussed in the context of R&D projects, but over the last three decades their use within commercial applications has grown significantly. This webinar will look at use cases across a variety of industries.

Webinar presenters:

Mike Urbanski, Product Sales Engineer, and Graham Ostrander, Program Manager, have 15 years combined of composites experience. Mike manages business development in the automotive, life sciences, industrial, defense & military and R&D markets, solving customer problems using thermoplastic composites. Graham specializes in improving in-situ consolidation of thermoplastic unidirectional prepreg using automated fiber placement (AFP). He has significant experience improving AFP process efficiency and quality. Mike, Graham, and the Trelleborg team can help design and deliver a tailored composite solution using optimal materials, manufacturing process, and engineering support to reduce costs and time to market.
