Design Guidelines: Copper in Inj. Molds
 
The Design Guidlines: Copper in Injection Molds course, discusses how copper alloys are used in mold components and the benefits obtained by this use. Thermal conductivity and alloy hardness are also discussed to differentiate copper from the other mold materials. The mold cooling section explains how heat is removed from the injection molds. Reasons and processes for plating copper alloys is touched upon, along with several examples of applications using copper alloys.

Rapid Tooling
 
The Rapid Tooling course will review advancements in existing tooling methods that accelerate the build of molds for prototype and short run production. New methods of reducing the build time for metal molds will be discussed including: using rapid prototyped parts to make mold inserts, and using high performance machining technology to CNC steel or aluminum molds. Rapid tooling design considerations, along with advantages and limitations are also reviewed.

Selection/Preventative Maint, Inj Molds
 
The Selection and Preventative Maintenance for Injection Molds course will explain why careful selection and maintenance of the mold is extremely important in the current production environment. The importance of defining "tooling standards" so that all suppliers will bid a comparable product is  another topic. Pricing and maintenance concerns, mold classifications, and the materials used to make molds are also addressed.

Advanced Injection Mold Design
 
The Advanced Injection Mold Design course begins by comparing the many different types of materials that are typically used in plastic injection molds. This course goes on to discuss the alloy properties necessary in injection molds, such as harshness, durability, machinability, and polishability. In addition, the course covers the different machining methods such as Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM), or Diffused Discharged Machining (DDM), and others. Finally, the course highlights the many surface treatments available today that a mold builder and/or molder may take advantage of to fight against increased wear and tear on the injection mold.
