RJG Receives Consignment Machine from Krauss-Maffei
RJG students will be able to interact with the machine in a variety of ways in order to put into practice what they learned in the classroom.
RJG received a new machine from Krauss-Maffei Corporation for their Gibsonville, North Carolina training facility. The KraussMaffei PX series all-electric injection molding machine is a 50 metric ton press with 29,370 psi of injection pressure and 0.84 ounces of barrel capacity.
The machine will be used in RJG’s Essentials, Systematic Molding, Decoupled Molding Workshop, and Master Molder I and II courses. Students will be able to interact with the machine in a variety of ways in order to put into practice what they learned in the classroom. This hands-on learning increases retention and provides students with tangible knowledge they can bring back to the plant floor.
