We are looking for a curious, hands-on intern to support our Advanced Technology team in rapid prototyping with 3D-printed moulds used on injection and compression moulding machines. Main Tasks * Plan and run simple parameter studies for rapid prototyping (e.g. resin type vs. mould temperature, curing temperature, exposure time). * Investigate the influence of rubber viscosity and process conditions on filling behaviour and part quality. * Prepare and compare reinforced resins with different reinforcement types (e.g. glass fibre, carbon fibre, fillers) in standard test geometries. * Help define test concepts for rapid prototyping parts (what to measure, how to compare, acceptance criteria). * Perform basic part testing: visual and dimensional checks, simple mechanical/functional tests, behaviour under different temperatures and pressures. * Document results in a clear, structured way (Excel overviews, short test summaries, photos). * Assist in simple “material design” tasks, e.g. combining resins and reinforcements, preparing small batches and comparing handling and performance.
