The SIGMA simulation software is a joint research project between leading industrial companies and Kunststofftechnik Paderborn. The program is used to simulate compounding and processing operations on co-rotating twin screw extruders. This year, for the first time after the Corona-Pandemic, the SIGMA user meeting took place on February 20 as a hybrid event, on-site in Paderborn and via Microsoft Teams. Here, Kunststofftechnik Paderborn presented…
