About this event
This webinar focuses on how the results of injection molding simulation can be applied to help engineers and designers make informed decisions in order to optimize their plastic part performance and manufacturability before having physical prototypes, or even a full mold design. The specific focus will be on how decisions regarding gate location, mold filling, and material selection will influence the size of your process window and dimensional stability of your part. Over the course of the webinar key concepts will be highlighted and reinforced through case studies.
