Fundamentals Of Mold Design And Construction
This interactive CD, is an inexpensive training tool that provides basic knowledge and information concerning the proper method for designing a mold for the plastic injection process, the basics of mold construction, action areas of the mold, runners - gates - venting, controlling mold temperatures, mold alignment concepts, repairing, protecting, and storing molds, troubleshooting defects caused by molds, the history of plastics, and a specially created Mold Design Checklist not found anywhere else. Although constructed with the entry level designer in mind, this is a great training tool for any individual seeking basic knowledge of the injection mold design and construction process and comes with systematic testing so the user can track data retained.
