Molding of Rubber and Design of Rubber Molds

 
This seminar covers a broad range of topics that are fundamental to the molding of rubber mechanical goods and the design of rubber molds associated with those molded articles with no reference to the molding of tires. Applicable molding methods will be reviewed with emphasis on compression, transfer and injection molding. Current principles and techniques in the design of molds and molded parts design will be covered. Basic material processes and design factors will then be interrelated to provide an integrated perspective of rubber molding.

More

Each topic covered includes some basic well known aspects of rubber mold design and also touches on some lessor known rubber mold design techniques and concepts. The novice rubber mold designer will be overwhelmed with useful design information and the seasoned practitioner will find plenty of valuable bits of information well worth the day. The instructors draw upon their combined extensive career knowledge for this material, inviting and encouraging the attendees to participate in a work-shop format presentation by addressing their questions and specific rubber mold design applications. Attendees are encouraged to bring drawings or parts giving problems in production for discussion by course instructors.

UWM is proud of its tradition of offering continuing education courses taught by "practitioners who use what they teach." This program is taught by Terry Chapin, Delphi Automotive Systems and Van Walworth, formerly with Parker-Hannifin, Wynn's Precision, Ashtabula Rubber Company, and Thunderline Corporation and now a consultant
