RUBBER MOLDING 2005 HOME PAGE
|
The conference program is designed to provide each delegate with useful hands-on information that can help manufacturing engineers, plant managers and operations engineers reduce manufacturing costs and improve the bottom line.
To better understand the value of attending the 2006 conference, here is a summary of what the delegates at the 2005 conference heard from industry leaders having over 200 combined years of experience in the rubber molding business:
- Actual examples from factory trials illustrating how Design of Experiment methods can be applied and what kind of results are obtained from the injection process.
- How temperature variations between the different points in the mold can have significant effects on the uniformity of the moulded part and imply setting a less than optimum curing time.
- How rubber molders are getting more innovative in finding ways to monitor and control the curing process.
- How automatic vision systems work, the efficiency and cost savings they bring to the table, and their limitations.
- All aspects of cryogenic deflashing of molded rubber parts including: design, compounds, methods of molding, and methods of deflashing.
- Adhesive preparation and application steps, parts design, and molding operations that need to be addressed to prevent bond failures.
- How by applying three mature mold design technologies into one can add huge dollars to your bottom line.
- How to maximize your injection molding machine capabilities
- How by using scalable automation you can minimize your investment risk and maximize capacity.
- How important it is in making the right choice in trying to keep your mold costs down without negatively impacting other aspects of your business and possibly resulting in higher costs in other areas.
