Plastic Injection Molding Technology Certificate (PMTC-CC)
The Plastic Injection Molding Technology certificate introduces various molding techniques and types of mold injection components. Throughout this hands-on program, students become familiar with the injection molding process, covering both the underlying design principles and laboratory applications. This certificate features lectures and assigned reading designed to introduce students to the concepts and specifications of injection molding. Students are exposed to the procedures associated with practical analyses of injection molding. This skill set can be applied to careers in injection molding. Classroom lectures and assigned readings apply knowledge in a laboratory setting. Each lab introduces students to practical setup procedures, start-up, operation, and shutdown of injection molding machinery. The operation of actual machinery and use of practical molding techniques optimize students’
