SUMMARY:RJG Academy Master Molder® I
DESCRIPTION:This is the industry’s premier standard demand for training! The Master Molder® I qualification is designed for the Process Technician\, Engineer\, or Manager who needs to understand and demonstrate injection molding skills at the machine. Participants will be able to establish the development of a DECOUPLED MOLDING® II process. Anyone who is responsible for implementing a processing strategy in their plant\, or who is held accountable for quality issues\, are prime candidates for this training. \nThere is a reason that companies in the injection molding industry actively seek out Master Molder qualified molders to join their team. Participants learn to apply methods\, strategies\, and techniques of injection molding from the plastic’s point of view\, all taught in a real-world production floor environment. This hands-on\, in-depth training enables participants to leave with solid skills that can be applied immediately in their facility.

SUMMARY:RJG Academy Part Design for Injection Molding
DESCRIPTION:RJG’s Part Design for Injection Molding course provides molders\, tool makers\, and design engineers with a common language and the universal knowledge required to successfully design and produce plastic injection molded components. Improving general knowledge of the steps required for part design reduces the risk of less than optimum tooling conditions\, therefore minimizing exposure to injection molding non-conformities that do not meet the quality requirements of the customer. \nClass topics address good manufacturing processes (GMP) for: plastic part design\, fundamental material characteristics\, basic tooling concepts\, necessary processing characteristics\, molding non-conformities\, and tolerances. The course also discusses how part design and material selection affect the cost of tooling and piece price. During training\, we utilize industry examples as reference\, then dive into evaluating and improving designs. Attendees will work in groups to examine parts to identify where non-conformities will occur and methods to improve those risks. \nI never expected how immediately Part Design for Injection Molding would prove beneficial to us. During class\, the instructor presented us with a test method that proved a great addition to our existing methods. Within days of returning to our office\, we were able to get the data we needed using the new test method. To top it off\, the class was interactive\, engaging\, and fun. Everyone who attended got something out of it regardless of their experience level.

SUMMARY:RJG Academy Smartflow® Scientific Cooling Course
DESCRIPTION:Use mold cooling management to produce consistent parts! This comprehensive\, two-day class is for designers\, mold builders\, tooling engineers\, and mold technicians who want to better understand and control the effects of mold cooling\, which results in a more robust mold design\, build\, and process. \nParticipants will learn the tools needed to analyze heat energy and the mold cooling management required to produce consistent\, profitable parts. Participants will also learn to systematically challenge the design of new molds and uncover issues with existing molds through a development of best practices for mold cooling management. They will receive an introduction to advanced methods\, such as flow simulation\, thermal imaging\, and high temperature cooling systems.

SUMMARY:RJG Academy DECOUPLED MOLDING Workshop
DESCRIPTION:This workshop is designed to provide participants with valuable hands-on machine time to reinforce the methodologies they learned in Systematic Molding or Fundamentals of Systematic Molding. It offers the exact same exercises as Master Molder® I\, but with half the practice time and none of the testing. Companies that are not allowed by their customers to make changes to processes can substitute the Template Match Workshop for the DECOUPLED MOLDING® Workshop. \nAttendees will acquire the knowledge they need to dissect and rebuild the process using data-driven methodologies\, then document the return on investment and indicate potential improvement areas using the current condition of the machine and mold. The end result will be the most robust process possible with the current conditions. For those interested in using this training to achieve real-world process improvement ROI\, an RJG consultant may be hired at a later date to mentor you on one or more of the machines at your facility.

SUMMARY:Beaumont & the American Injection Molding Institute Development Course: Mold Design
DESCRIPTION:Online or in-person (Erie\, PA) \nThe course begins by identifying the five key systems of a mold: melt delivery\, cooling\, structural\, venting\, and ejection. Discussions follow featuring the foundations of each system and how they all affect the formation of the plastic part and the final part quality. Participants will take part in three different labs: a mold tear down and assembly\, mold print reading\, and a cooling cart demonstration. Attendees will gain the ability to evaluate mold design based on the five systems and recognize design features that could be improved.

SUMMARY:Beaumont & the American Injection Molding Institute Mold Component Welding\, Polishing\, & Repair
DESCRIPTION:Ashland\, Ohio \nThe Mold Component Welding\, Polishing & Repair course will show your mold maintenance technicians how to repair tooling quickly and accurately instead of replacing it or sending it out for repair\, saving your company thousands of dollars while enhancing your technicians’ skill. Attendees will learn how to rework typical tooling issues such as worn edges\, dings\, scuffs\, and scratches with typical tooling found in most molds through actual bench work.

SUMMARY:RJG Master Molder® I
DESCRIPTION:December 2\, 2024 8:00 AM–December 13\, 2024 3:00 PM  | Traverse City\, Michigan \nMaster Molder I \n\nThis 10-day certificate course focuses on the best practices of DECOUPLED MOLDING® II process development\, documentation\, and duplication for any mold in any capable machine. To help students apply scientific molding principles\, the schedule offers a blend of hands-on time with the molds and machines and participative classroom time. The goal is not necessarily to be able to “run machines” but to achieve an understanding of the “whys” behind the manipulation of key processing variables from the plastic’s point of view. During the last 2 days\, participants are assessed on process development\, process matching\, and general molding theory and methodology through timed final exams to confirm the effective transfer of critical knowledge and skills.

SUMMARY:RJG’s Fundamentals of Systematic Injection Molding
DESCRIPTION:March 18\, 2025 8:00 AM–March 21\, 2025 4:00 PM\nCourse length: 4 days \n\n\nDesigned for both technical and non-technical personnel who are associated with production of thermoplastic injection molded components\, this course introduces the foundational elements of systematic molding: part design\, mold design\, material\, machine\, and processing with Decoupled Molding methodologies. Participants are guided through a series of cause and effect studies to help them understand how manipulating primary machine input settings affects the four plastic variables and ultimately affects part quality and process repeatability. Empowered with this understanding\, participants will begin troubleshooting common part defects. \nCourse Objectives \n\nConsider part design best practices as they relate to greater processing capability and minimizing non-conformities\nReview the functions of the primary components of different types of molding machines and molds\nExamine how to achieve appropriate melt consistency and temperature\nStudy the relationship between pressure and speed and how plastic flow rates affect material flow-ability\nAnalyze the effects of hold pressure on part weight and cushion\nAssociate hold time to part weight/dimensional stability\nTheoretically calculate and practically determine appropriate clamp force\nDetermine appropriate cooling time to achieve part stability at ejection\nObserve the effects of additives (color changes) on the properties of the molded part\nRelate the 4 plastic variables to part defects to outline potential corrective actions\n\nDelivery Format Options\nThis course is available publicly\, in-plant\, or online. \n\n\nFor more information and to register:\nhttps://rjginc.com/training/registration/fundamentals-of-systematic-injection-molding/
