Mechanical engineering doctoral students Casey Hoffman and Jaron Kuppers won top honours in the national competition last month for developing their Specialised Elastomeric Tooling (SET) process.

When the first plastic chairs were made, they began with fairly simple tools and moulds to form the plastic. The simple tools were easy to adjust and this gave the designer the chance to evaluate the final product and adjust the tools almost endlessly.

Dear visitor, Matbase has not changed a lot over the last few years, but, as you may have noticed, this has changed. This section is the first result of a transition to a new Content Management System. We have always had many ideas to improve Matbase, but the old CMS did allow us to add new functionality to Matbase as fast and easy as we would like. Unfortunately, it was not possible to do the transition in one big bang. So you'll be switching between the old and the new sections while you wander through Matbase until a full transition is possible. We hope you'll not be bothered by that.

We also hope that you do appreciate new sections like the Events calendar and Forum. We believe these new sections are an important step towards becoming a real platform for exchanging knowledge on material properties, application and processing. We are becoming interactive!

Thanks for your visit, we hope to welcome you back many more times

The Matbase team
