MoldMaking Technology’s 30 Under 30 Honors Program shows off the next-generation of talent making an impact across the mold manufacturing marketplace. Their stories are impressive and their energy is incredible! Working on this program has only increased my passion for this community!
Here are just a few tidbits from this 30 Under 30 honoree to whet your appetite for our full conversation:
- School good on theory but not practical knowledge.
- Working closely with mold builders to learn everything from machinability to complex components of a mold.
- Mentoring is sharing experience.
- Had to learn how to bridge the gap when it comes to machinability and ease of assembly.
- Surprised by mold design turnaround time.
- Fascinated by EDM.
- Moldmaking does not stall out, it doesn’t get boring. Something knew always comes around.
- Spend time harvesting knowledge.
- Most interesting team project so far was working on the overmold tool for a COVID-19 testing kit.
- His magnum opus is a family mold for a leaf blower gas tank—with slides, hydraulic pulling, etc.
- Most people coming into moldmaking will be engineers and not from the shop floor, so education MUST change.
