Perform Plastic Injection-Molding Simulation - Fundamentals

Course details

This course will equip the trainee with a basic understanding of Plastic Injection Molding process and perform the plastic material flow simulation and analysis.

The trainee will learn how to step-by-step setup, simulate and analyse the plastic material flow inside the part and interpret the simulation results. The trainees will gain the knowledge of how to manage various process parameters involved and efficiently improve the quality during design stage itself using a simulation solution.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

This training course is intended for all involved in plastic injection molding tools – designers, simulation engineers, process engineers and managers, Plastic part product designers, managers or engineers or technicians who need to validate the injection mold tool design and process using simulation.

PRE-REQUISITES

Engineering knowledge is required. Familiarity with computer (PC or workstation) and basic knowledge of Computer Aided Design (CAD) tools will be useful.
