NEW TRAINING COURSES TO HELP MOLDERS FIGHT BACK AGAINST THE RECESSION
New courses in Assisted Injection Molding (AIM) are being launched to show molders how to reduce costs, increase productivity and claw back competitive advantage in the face of a global recession.
Cinpres, in collaboration with Polymer Training Ltd (PTL) – a major international resource centre for the polymer industry – will offer a range of modules at its facility in Cheshire, using live molding machines and providing attendees with the chance to gain practical experience in the use of gas and water assisted injection molding techniques.
Managing Director of Cinpres, Jon Butler, said: “The new modules to be introduced this year will ultimately target those companies who could benefit from AIM to achieve greater market share and higher margins, both of which are critical in the current climate.
“Those who currently use AIM, or have in the past, will get to grips with the latest developments and techniques, and those who haven’t, and are presently settling for low-quality parts at high cost, will be introduced to methods that can transform their production processes,” he added.
PTL, which offers official training accreditation for its courses, has over thirty years experience in supporting the polymer sector and will market, package and sell the courses on behalf of Cinpres.
Mark Smith, Director of PTL, said: “We are delighted to team up with Cinpres on this project. Molders are particularly keen at the moment to reduce costs and improve their service offering and I believe discovering the benefits of AIM technology will certainly be a welcome opportunity.”
