This comprehensive class is for designers, mold builders, tooling engineers, and mold technicians who want to better understand and control the effects of mold cooling resulting in a more robust mold design, mold build, and molding process.
Participants will learn the tools needed to analyze Heat Energy and the Mold Cooling Management required to produce consistent, profitable parts. Students will learn to systematically challenge the design of new molds and uncover issues with existing molds through a development of best practices for Mold Cooling Management.
Class materials are developed by Mark Brown and Phil Burger in collaboration with Technical Partners and industry experts.
Shared Learning
Participants are encouraged to bring details of their cooling challenges for group discussion and analysis as time permits. Cooling details such as flow rate, cooling circuit diameter and length may be analyzed in class. Actual parts are welcome along with material specifications, melt temperature, ejection temperature and cycle times. This type of group discussion contributes to a valuable learning experience.
After successful class completion with a minimum test score of 70%, you will earn a Scientific Cooling Certificate. You will have the tools to implement Scientific Cooling principles in your molding process.

Tim Eckhoff, SPM - "This is extremely valuable and under-utilized knowledge. Everyone who molds or designs tooling or maintains molding facilities can benefit." Colton Carew, EG Industries - Lessons learned in this class will allow us to design "accurate and efficient cooling circuits prior to cutting steel." Kevin Clair, Rubbermaid - After participating in the class "I have a better understanding of mold cooling which will help me build better molds." Tylor Williams, C&J Industries - It was most valuable "finding how much energy is being wasted and how easily we can eliminate" the waste. |
