Routsis Interactive Plastics Training - Basic Injection Molding Training Courses

Basic Injection Molding Courses

Our basic injection molding training programs were created for newcomers to the plastics industry and should be the cornerstone of any structured in-house training program. These interactive courses are a perfect starting point for entry-level personnel and an excellent refresher course for any employee involved in an injection molding operation.

Participants are provided with an overview of the plastics industry and introduced to injection molding. The courses go on to explain how an injection molding machine functions and how the process works.

Employees are also introduced to concepts such as quality control, troubleshooting, and process optimization. Our basic injection molding training courses help prepare workers for the production floor with an emphasis on safety and efficiency.

An Introduction to Injection Molding

This course provides participants with a general introduction to the plastics industry. The primary focus of this training program is the day-to-day operations of a typical injection molding facility.
