INJECTION MOULDING MACHINE OPERATION




Introduction
Injection moulding is the most common method for producing plastic parts. An injection moulding machine creates plastic parts by injecting molten plastic materials into a mould. The quality of plastic parts produced by this method depends on mould design, material, parameter setting and operator's technical know-how. In this course, participants will learn how to use injection moulding machine for making plastic products. They will also learn how to correctly determine process parameters for producing high quality plastic parts.


Target Group
This injection moulding course is designed for people who require an introductory course to plastic processing using injection moulding. The course is suitable for technical workers from plastic manufacturing industry such as machine operators or process technicians. It is also useful for plastic industry personnel or researchers who need a refresher course on this topic.
