Product Design and Development Division

Technical Focus

The objective of the Product Design & Development Division is the continual improvement in the quality of the design and development of plastic products. That ongoing goal will be achieved by providing a broad forum for designers, their suppliers, their customers, and design educators to come together for the dissemination of technical information. This technical information will include topics in materials, design, tool design, processing, assembly, simulation, failure analysis and failure prevention.
