From sunglasses frames to high-precision optical network connections, plastics are everywhere. More than 85 billion pounds of polymer products are manufactured each year in North America, most by a process known as injection molding, says John P. Coulter, professor of mechanical engineering and mechanics.

Beaumont recently teamed with Lehigh University to conduct a research project funded by the National Science Foundation. Click here to read all about it.
“Of all the training seminars that I have attended over the past 10 years, this one ranks at the top! The explanations of clamp tonnage, cooling strategies, viscosity, and key mold design components are just a few of the takeaways that will be very useful in my job function.”
“I was amazed at the amount of expertise and knowledge presented in just two days. Many myths were debunked, numerous scientific explanations for the way we should be thinking about plastic flow were given, and various real-world examples were used to show how plastic flows.”
