Course description
A 3-day injection molding seminar that teaches the business of profitable molding for managers. The primary focus is on identifying, monitoring, and controlling the cost drivers of an injection molding plant. Cost drivers are those items which dictate how much profit is made. Managers of molding plants are swamped daily with a myriad of issues, many of the “immediate” variety. Those daily fires can obscure the important metrics by which success will be measured and achieved.
