SUMMARY:Solve Sink Marks from the Plastics Point of View
DESCRIPTION:  \nInjection molders! Do you have that “sinking” feeling when you encounter sink marks? Then join us for this month’s FREE webinar topic\, “How to Solve Sink Marks from the Plastics Point of View.” \nIn this presentation\, as part of our popular series of FREE monthly SimTech™ webinars\, we will review the nature of sink marks. Sink Marks are depressions on the surface of the part. How do they occur? When the plastic in the mold cools\, it shrinks. In thick sections\, like where ribs and bosses meet the shrinkage can be enough to form a depression on the wall of the part. As the part continues to cool\, molecules inside move closer together\, and the plastic shrinks causing an internal stress that tries to collapse the surface of the molded part which eventually creates sink marks. How to avoid and solve this problem? Join our expert instructor\, Todd Bryant as he examines the effects on plastic that can cause sink marks and show you how to practice solving this problem utilizing our SimTech injection molding simulator. \nSign up or learn more at www.paulsontraining.com.

SUMMARY:Paulson Training Programs Virtual Classes: ProMolder 2
DESCRIPTION:Paulson ProMolder 2\nNew! Now offering select seminars online in a virtual classroom format. \nThis is a 5-day classroom and hands-on injection molding technology seminar. Paulson ProMolder 2 is taught in 2 modules: \n\nModule 1 explains the plastic properties and behavior that affects part quality\, the scientific basis and the technology of molding. This is followed by a detailed analysis of common molded part defects\, their causes and solutions (attendees may bring molded part examples from their plants for analysis).\nModule 2 is hands-on molding practice using SimTech\, the Paulson injection molding simulator\, to provide each student hands-on practice in setting and observing the effects of each machine control on the plastic and the molded parts and problem-solving. This is followed by a molding laboratory on an actual machine to demonstrate some of the information previously taught and shown.\nProMolder 2 Seminar also includes more machine time\, additional hours\, and a new math for molders module.\n\nCertification: Paulson Training Programs has an excellent reputation for developing highly qualified injection molding personnel who are sought after by the industry. To maintain this quality we test each student at the end of the course with a written exam. Grades 90% and above will earn a Gold Certificate of Achievement; 80% – 89% a Silver Certificate of Achievement; those achieving a 70%-79% will earn a Blue Certificate of Achievement\, and all others earn a Certificate of Attendance.

SUMMARY:Leveraging an E-Commerce Testing Requirement to Understand Packaging Cost Implications | featuring a CPG case study
DESCRIPTION:The growth of e-commerce is rapidly changing the way products are packaged and shipped. \nAnd with the introduction of new testing standards from Amazon\, many vendors are adjusting their approach or seeking out package and distribution testing for the first time. \n\n\n\nIn an upcoming one-hour webinar\, Michael Kuebler\, Technical Director\, Smithers Pira\, gives an overview of the evolution of e-commerce and how and why the latest Amazon testing standards were developed. Kuebler takes a deep dive into a real-world case study that follows an everyday CPG product through a standard testing procedure\, a package failure\, and an investigative testing process that uncovers a cost-saving solution. Finally\, Kuebler breaks down how the testing process can help: \n\nSave time\nReduce costs\nMaintain brand reputation
