Duration
3 days
Overview
This course is designed to provide participants with the advanced knowledge in plastic mould construction and design. The scope emphasizes on more complex product and mould design, where participants engage in practical activities to design a plastic product and mould using CAD system. Products are designed based on related material applications, with high consideration on material properties. The scope of design is into split moulds, side core and cavity, designing moulds with undercuts, and threaded component mould design. The approach of mould design also covers aspects of feed, ejection and cooling systems and common injection moulding calculations.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to :
- Explain and recognize the different types and design of moulds
