ToolingDocs Expands Mold Repair
ToolingDocs' Certification Programs feature hands-on bench work and classroom training at the ToolingDocs maintenance facility in Ashland, Ohio. The Level 1 curriculum is ideal for those who have at least one year of mold maintenance experience. The new, Level 2 Certification is a three-day program that introduces standardized, documented maintenance methodology including rigorous, hands-on training. Attendees (2-man teams) are supplied with a transfer tool maintenance plan that requires them to perform a complete mold condition assessment of a 32-cavity, 3-plate mold with tapered shut-offs. Each mold has issues that attendees are required to accurately disassemble, evaluate, measure, and determine PM frequencies and document findings using appropriate (supplied) hand tools and their own physical bench skills. Attendees will systematically: • Work through all the Eight Stages of Systemized Mold Maintenance;
•
Determine appropriate corrective actions and be tested
in applying the troubleshooting and bench techniques
learned throughout
• Become
skilled at polishing and TIG welding techniques, and Upon successful completion of the coursework and testing, a certificate is presented to mark the achievement.
Synventive Molding Solutions has introduced a new interactive hot runner system design tool that allows fast, easy download of 3-dimensional CAD models of the company’s hot runner system manifolds and nozzles. Available online at www.synventive.com, these 3D models are available in numerous electronic formats. This interactive tool is one of the highlights of the redesigned Synventive website, which also features product details, new technologies, and market-specific hot runner system solutions. The site was recently launched and is available in English, German and Mandarin Chinese. This new service makes it easier for a mold designer anywhere in the world to download and ‘drop-in’ the Synventive hot runner manifold and nozzle drawings into their mold design drawing. It allows for fast conceptual designs, which speeds up the hot runner/mold design and build process and in turn speeds end product time to market.
