About the seminar
This comprehensive two day technical seminar was developed to provide engineers and other technical personnel a state-of-the-art guide to designing and building injection molds. Critical areas addressed include the molding cycle, mold classifications, the cavity and core, runner and runnerless molding systems, plastic part analysis, mold materials and cost factors. Though some theory is included, emphasis is placed on best practice and selecting the proper technologies for your mold. This popular and informative course has been attended by more than 500 students.


Anyone working with the mold design and building process can benefit from this highly instructional course. This includes product design and process engineers, manufacturing, QA/QC, plastics and tooling engineers, as well as sales/service, purchasing, maintenance and management personnel.

Learn the various types of molds and design concepts that best fit your products
Master the terminology and mold classifications used in the mold industry
Understand how to select the best mold materials, finishes, plating and coatings
Acquire techniques for balancing the mold and controlling temperature
Troubleshoot and analyze failure and identify practical solutions
Learn the factors that determine mold making and part costs

Robert (Bob) Dealey has over thirty years experience in engineering, designing, building, producing and consulting on sophisticated high cavitation runnerless injection molds. A graduate from the University of Wisconsin-Stout, he has held engineering and management positions at D-M-E Company, Square D, Lake Center Industries and North American Systems before forming his own plastics management, marketing and technical consulting firm. A member of the Society of Plastics Engineers (SPE) since 1971, he was past president and director of their Mold Making and Mold Design Division. In addition to authoring numerous articles and presentations both here and abroad, Bob also wrote the chapter on Mold Making and Materials for the Society of the Plastics Industry handbook and the chapters on Mold Design and Mold Maintenance for SPE's Plastics Technician Tool Box. In 1994, the Mold Making and Mold Design division of SPE named Bob the Mold Designer of the Year.
