Training Spotlight

Systematic Molding I via LIVE eClassroom!
March 1-5, 2010 (4 hours per day) - Online - $845
This is an excellent overview for managers of the many economic benefits of implementing a scientific molding strategy in your organization, and for those responsible to understand scientific molding principles in order to approve process changes and make decisions. Students leave this course with a better understanding of how to develop a machine independent process, how to make data driven improvements to existing processes, as well as how to effectively trouble-shoot using scientific and systematic approaches. Students will also understand the cause and effect relationships between the machine, process, mold, and material as well as how and why polymer behavior is influenced. This will allow them to make informed decisions for lasting solutions instead of “band-aid” fixes to the process.This course is delivered directly to you via the internet with a Live instructor. You can “raise your virtual hand” to ask questions, see demonstrations, and re-watch the presentation later. For details, video promo, and registration click here.

DOE for Injection Molding Workshop
March 2-4, 2010- Traverse City, MI - $2,095
March 5 - Optional Alarms Settings Workshop
This workshop is designed for medical molders who use DOE for the OQ phase of validation, Process Engineers who want to qualify molds more quickly, and Quality Engineers who need to make their tool tryouts more effective and less costly.

In this hands-on workshop we will cover:

• Why DOE for injection molding is different
• The critical role of the Four Plastics Variables
• The 11 step checklist for planning the experiment, running the parts, and analyzing the results
• Understanding when to use DOE – and when not
• Finding the optimum process to meet multiple part quality requirements
• Determine the acceptable processing window using data
• Analyzing the data using simple yet powerful statistical tools

Medical Molding Symposium
March 24, 2010 - Caguas, Puerto Rico - $199
RJG’s Medical Molding Symposiums focus on helping companies deal with the very expensive and time/resource consuming task of meeting FDA requirement for IQ, OQ and PQ. Medical molders face a unique and growing set of challenges. FDA guidelines must be met and quality must be maintained, but at the same time reducing costs associated with documentation and inspection is imperative. Click here for details.
