Equipment
The equipment used by Research Team Production Technology West is located at the Production Technology Centre, PTC.
Most of the equipment is owned by University West, but some is owned by the other partners in PTC. All collaboration partners have access to all equipment by agreement or hire. It is also used for university teaching.
All machines are the same as those used in industry. They are thus not models, like those found at other colleges and universities. In addition to the machinery there is a great variety of measurement and testing equipment for scientific experiments. There are also advanced computer resources for research in virtual manufacturing.
All-in-all it is probably one of the best equipped labs in Sweden for research on production processes in the manufacturing industry.
