SKZ presents pioneering testing systems
SKZ – The Plastics Center
The SKZ Plastics Center presents modern solutions for the high-precision detection of even the finest defects on plastic products. Companies benefit from comprehensive support – from selection and adaptation to the development and seamless integration of automated inspection systems.
Despite careful control of the process parameters during production – whether in injection molding, extrusion or additive manufacturing – undesirable quality deviations can occur. In many cases, manual rechecking remains the only way to identify rejects and avoid complaints.
However, the selection of suitable testing systems is often complex: optical, tactile and radiometric measuring methods offer different strengths and weaknesses. This is where the SKZ Plastics Center offers comprehensive, manufacturer-independent support. As a renowned institute with many years of expertise in non-destructive testing and plastics technology, the SKZ supports companies throughout the entire decision-making process – from feasibility studies and the comparison of different technologies to the selection and integration of automated testing technology, including solutions developed in-house at the SKZ. Free preliminary studies and individual development services are also available for specific requirements.
With this service, the SKZ is positioning itself as a reliable partner for companies that want to improve their production quality in a targeted manner and detect faults at an early stage.
As a member of the Zuse Association – a network of independent, industry-related research institutions – the SKZ is actively involved in innovation and knowledge exchange in order to sustainably strengthen the competitiveness of industry, especially SMEs.
