WEBINAR a feature of PTonline.com Tuesday, June 27th 2:00 PM EST WATCH ON-DEMAND NOW AT: short.ptonline.com/Autodsk627 Reducing Mold Cycle Time With Moldflow Reducing cycle time can have a significant impact on the profitability of a project and lower the piece part cost, however, there is a trade off between cycle time reduction and increased mold costs. Autodesk Moldflow® allows you to study different methods of mold cooling, mold design, and part quality to achieve an optimal mold design and injection molding process. PRIMARY TOPICS: • Using simulation to efficiently optimize part design and mold cooling • Analyze multiple effective heat extraction strate - gies before cutting steel • Evaluate alternative technologies, such as conformal cooling, before investment PRESENTER Joe Huegel Technical Specialist MoldFlow SME Joe Huegel has a Plastics Engineering Degree from Penn State University and has spent most of his profes- sional career focusing on injection molding simulation using Moldflow. He is now a subject matter expert on the Simulation team at Autodesk. He lives in Erie, Pennsylvania.
