MW-VNT-76 Basic processes in the production and processing of wood-based materials and paper
Qualification goals
Students have basic process and processing technology knowledge of the process-related possibilities of forming, shaping, modifying and tempering wood and fiber materials as well as paper pulp. They have knowledge of the specific mechanical-physical, thermal, biological and chemical processes involved and the resulting changes in state and changes in position, shape and composition and are able to analyze, model, select and design the processes of providing raw materials, creating structural elements, their manipulation or modification as well as material structure formation, shaping and tempering. Students have basic knowledge of processes and processing technology for the manufacture of products from wood and fiber materials as well as paper, in particular process-related aspects analogous to the main production groups (basic processes), which focus on specific materials. Students have the competence to evaluate processing procedures for wood and fiber materials as well as paper, cardboard and paperboard in terms of material and energy economy, ecology and safety. They can select, analyze, model and design manufacturing processes and are able to measure and evaluate process parameters.
Contents
The module covers the processes for producing wood and fiber materials, for producing paper pulp, processes for shaping, modifying and tempering these composite materials, processes for providing raw materials, processes for producing structural elements, the manipulation and modification of structural elements as well as material structure formation, shaping and tempering. Further contents of the module are processes for processing wood-based materials and fiber materials and processes for processing paper, process-related aspects of the respective main production groups (basic processes) and their material-specific relevance.
