The international exhibition for the polymer testing industry
Professionals from throughout the materials supply chain will come together at Polymer Testing Expo to view and compare a wide range of laboratory equipment, systems and services for assessing the quality and performance of plastic formulations and products.
Discover and debate the latest innovations and best practices in polymer testing, characterisation and analysis in the dedicated conference theatre, featuring two days of presentations on the latest advances in testing and analysing polymer materials, compounds and products. Join the industry at this important new forum for scientists, laboratory staff, researchers and R&D professionals who develop, test and analyse new polymer materials, formulations and products.
Both the exhibition and the conference are free for visitors to attend, and is co-located with the Compounding World Expo and Plastics Recycling World Expo.

The measurement and control technician is a specialization of the industrial technician. Typical occupational work of the Measure and Control technicians are tasks in the area of production and manufacturing facilities in companies of the Energy supply such as power grid operators and in power plants.
In addition, measurement and control technicians work in companies in the electrical industry in which generators or Transformers are manufactured. The measurement and control technician monitors, maintains and repairs measurement and Control components of production and manufacturing facilities.
The measurement and control technician also instructs employees on operating systems and monitors the work processes.
Another field of activity are the areas of mechanical and plant engineering, lighting and Communication technology. The profession of measuring and control mechanic or technician was recognized in 1960 and abolished on August 1, 1992. The job was replaced by the successor job of process control electronics technician (valid until August 1, 2003)
