Welcome to Practical Technology Training Australia Pty Ltd

Practical Technology Training Australia (PTTA) focuses on the supply of leading-edge training resource materials and specialist software for materials searches to the Plastics and associated industries, and educational institutions.

Our products cover injection moulding, blow moulding, extrusion, health and safety, quality in manufacturing through the sound implementation of SPC techniques, and employability skills. We also represent Polymer Training Ltd’s famous process simulation programs.

While most of our programs are interactive, computer-delivered (via CD-ROM or online eLearning) for most effective self-paced learning, we also provide excellent text-based materials for injection moulding, through to advanced levels. Please visit the websites of our Licensors for more information.
