Description
RTI - Regional Technological Institute is a new research centre affiliated with the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at the University of West Bohemia in Pilsen. It was built between 2011 and 2015; and since then has grown to comprise nearly one hundred young and talented researchers, engineers, and members of administrative staff. Our scientists develop numerous research projects, many of them in collaboration with partners from industry. On behalf of manufacturing companies, RTI conducts contract research, which includes complex testing, measurements, and calculations. We also develop prototypes and verify new manufacturing processes.
RTI cooperates with a number of companies, research institutions in the Czech Republic and seeks and continues to establish new relationships with foreign organisations. An overview of our laboratories is part of this offer.
The collaboration may take the form of direct contract collaboration or joint R&D projects. We are ready to prepare study visits, lectures and workshops.
