The aim of the seminar is to familiarise the participants with the design principles for bonded structural joints, current trends and application technologies in the field of composite materials and structural parts.

The aim of this course is to explain the adhesive bonding on theoretical and practical level. Emphasis is placed primarily on the acquisition of skills needed for independently performing practical tasks in this area.

The course gives participants an understanding of the technical aspects and importance of the work procedures and therefore allows them to carry out bonding work independently and effectively. 

The course provides a fundamental understanding of the gluing technology. After successful completion of this course, the participants are able to carry out independent gluing work, as a true professional, in a technically responsible manner.

The course provides basic core education in adhesive technology required for bonding personnel in manual and or automated adhesive bonding processes. A EAB can do bonding tasks according to procedures. Can read and understand working instructions and production bonding methods. 

The course provides core education in adhesive technology required for adhesive personnel active in job functions as foreman, instructor, technical decision makers. The European Adhesive Specialist has specialized and factual knowledge in the field of adhesive bonding technology.

The course qualifies practical users of adhesive technology to create bonds independently and professionally.

The EWF-European Adhesive Engineer (EAE) course trains employees to supervise the whole spectrum of bonding work from product development to production and repair activities.

The participants will become trained for using adhesive bonding technology in industrial production, for product development and supervision of bonding personnel.

The research on this subject is driven through a material-by-design approach relying on the formulation of a set of requirements in terms of performances and constraints, based on which the best material solution is sought.
