VDMA, a German engineering industry association, has announced that the next VDMA technology webtalk is scheduled for December 9, 2020. The topic will be “Technologies for Technical Textiles”. Bena Manasieva Cavus from Georg Sahm, Janpeter Horn & Dennis Behnken from Herzog, and Hagen Lotzmann from Karl Mayer will be the presenters for the event.

 

Cavus will show how to add value and performance to your technical yarns with a single end extrusion coating line. Horn and Behnken will present new developments in technical braids such as rope braiding/tension members to replace steel wire, medical braids for stents, ligaments, sutures and composites for lightweight construction and near net-shape preforms.
