In this presentation, Torsten Kruse, Kruse Training, Inc., will describe how two processes - Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Design of Experiments (DOE) - provide a greater understanding of the cause-and-effect behavior in injection molding. Kruse also will touch on how these processes can improve the flow of knowledge back and forth between processor and mold builder, positively impacting the "Circle of Knowledge" between all parties involved.

The webinar will review the goals of the DFM process, as well as molded part requirements, criteria and factors for molded parts and an explanation of a sensitivity chart. Additionally, the presentation will look at the set-up of the DOE process, complimented with a basic example to demonstrate how this tool can be used to address moldmakers’ concerns.

Key takeaways include the following:

• An overview of DFM and how to set up a sensitivity chart using both design and process factors
• A step-by-step approach for setting up and utilizing DOE to improve warpage on an injection molded part
• The role of cross-training in the mold design process

Ultimately, attendees will learn that these processes are dependent on each other and will walk away with a better understanding of the cause-and-effect behaviors in injection molding, on to mold design and mold building.
