Routsis Interactive Plastics Training - Advanced Injection Molding Training Courses

Advanced Processing Series

This more advanced series of plastics training brings participants deeper into the injection molding process by introducing and explaining both process controls and processing parameters in greater detail. Also within this series are the four DECOUPLED MOLDING SM courses, RJG’s eDART™, and three Intelligent Molder courses - conveying the many concepts and theories covered within RJG’s training seminars.

Our Math for Molders program demonstrates the role of mathematics in the plastics processing industry; eliminating confusion and allowing plant personnel to perform their jobs more effectively.

We also feature courses about Processing Parameters and Process Control Systems that can help employees better understand how to maintain control of their processes and increase the efficiency of their injection molding facility.

DECOUPLED MOLDING SM

These courses convey many of the concepts and theories covered within the RJG DECOUPLED MOLDING SM training seminars.

This four disc series starts with the major components of the molding process, and progresses to systematic troubleshooting.

The DECOUPLED MOLDING SM system is an ideal processing method intended for anyone interested in optimizing an injection molding process.
