EXTRUSION ACADEMY

Knowledge from professionals for professionals

The Training Program

The Leistritz Extrusion Academy optimally combines intensive practical training with theoretical expertise - from practice for practice.

In various multi-day training modules, the theoretical knowledge is directly illustrated and then put into practice in our well-equipped labs. Tailored to the respective level of knowledge of the participants, individual seminars are conducted by experienced experts in all aspects of the extrusion process.

We offer the Extrusion Academys in several languages.

We also offer the theoretical contents as a virtual training module in the Extrusion Academy ONLINE.

 

Extrusion Academy BASIC

In this training participants will learn more about the basics of extrusion technology and the entire extrusion process. During three days the knowledge gained in the theoretical part is subsequently tried out and implemented practically in mini workshops in small groups. Focus topics are:

  • Extruder mechanics
  • Control unit
  • Dosing unit
  • Pelletizing
  • Trouble shooting
  • Active maintenance

Benefits

  • Illustrative training in small groups
  • Improvement of product quality due to increased basic knowledge
  • More efficient handling and operation of extrusion lines
  • Motivating education and training of employees
  • Discussion and exchange of experience with experts
