Injection moulded parts are widely used in automobiles, consumer goods, medical parts, aircraft interiors and across many more types of
products. Parts that may vary in shape, size and complexity are manufactured using Injection moulding process in a moulding machine.
The process involves injection of plastic material into a cavity, where the material cools and hardens as per the configuration of the cavity.
Injection moulding can be performed with a host of materials like elastomers, thermoplastic and thermosetting polymers. Moulds are made
by a mould-maker (or toolmaker) from metal, usually either steel or aluminium, and precision-machined to form the features of the desired
part.
Injection moulding process poses many challenges, which may lead to defects in the final parts. In order to successfully manufacture a
moulded part, it is important to understand the possible defects, get an understanding of the parameters that control the moulding process,
which could be incorporated at the mould design stage itself.
Keeping this in mind, Indian Machine Tool Manufacturers Association is organizing a two-day online training program on Defects analysis
and Troubleshooting of Moulded parts.

This program will be delivered by Mr. Ramesh Srinivasa Rao.
Mr. Ramesh Srinivasa Rao, a Mechanical engineer by profession, was associated with L&T Technology services for over 14 years, as part of
the Mechanical design services responsible for Industrial Design, Product design, tool design manufacturing simulation, Packaging, and
sustainable product design in Electronics Plant at Bangalore. He has managed multiple product development projects and trained 350 +
Mechanical engineers across multiple locations. He has also generated many atentable designs for clients in medical devices, automotive,
consumer products. And Holds 7 patents in medical devices and interconnects.
Prior to L&T, served in the tooling industry for 14 years in Singapore. And remaining years in various manufacturing companies.
