Overview
This compact training course with the practical training on the machine provides participants with a general understanding of the major aspects of injection molding: the injection molding machine, process, molds and parameters. Furthermore, it gives an overview of the typical defects, which may occur during the injection molding process.
This course is ideal for newcomers and an excellent refresher course for any employee involved in plastics processing from setters and operators to management and sales technicians, who interact with processors or other plastics professionals on a daily basis.
- Machine technoloy: clamping unit, injection unit, screws, nozzle etc.
- Injection molding cycle: process and effect of the parameters
- Material science: structure, charge behavior, drying, Processing instructions of the most important materials (PA, PBT, PC, GF-reinforced)
- Mold technology: different kinds of molds, cooling, hot runner technology, mold maintenance, grease
- Shrinkage and warpage: effect of the parameters, mold and material, pvT diagram, causes of distortion (4-M), distortion problems on sample parts
- Surface defects: free jet, weld lines, color, etc.
- Changing a mold, mold protection, starting the process, filling study
- Effect of the parameters, injection speed, protection of the injection, holding pressured, determine of the holding time, clamping force, process optimization.
- Shrinkage tests on the machine, optimize warping problems
- Optimization of surface defects with the parameters
