Planning an Injection Mold Design Training Program.
Allyn, Edward P.
With the increased use of plastics worldwide the shortage of trained personnel in moldmaking and design for plastic injection molds is becoming critical. Local schools and community colleges should provide courses in mold design and mold making, since most workers presently learn while working under experienced designers on the job. Following this brief background scenario, a planned curriculum for a three-semester program in Moldmaking Design is proposed. Content for each semester is described, and practical suggestions are made for program implemention, covering such topics as facilities, faculty, financing, and reading materials. (The author's address is given for those who wish assistance in starting such a program.) A bibliography is provided. (YLB)
