Lectures included practical demonstrations

Participants had the opportunity to listen to, discuss and solve problems with PM experts drawn from both industry and academia.

Lectures were complemented by the University of Cracow’s laboratory facilities where students gained hands on experience looking at the technological properties of powders, compaction of powders and microhardness testing.

A site visit to the Sandvik Polska factory in Katowice was also organised for students.

Dates have not yet been finalised for the 2015 PM Summer School which will take place in Sheffield, United Kingdom.
