Amerimold Connects Kicks off with Tool Shop Live Demo of a High-Level Hot Runner Mold PM
The reason we are kicking off the event with this topic is because at the heart of making things is the mold, and since the mold impacts every link in the supply chain—OEM/brand owner toolrooms, molding facilities and mold building shops—mold maintenance is vital. So we felt it’s only appropriate to kick off this event with a “virtual” hands-on look at a proper hot runner preventative maintenance routine.

PODCAST: Accomplished Women Empowering Accomplished Women in Manufacturing
