Listen to replay of our first customer spotlight eSeminar by Sumit Mukherjee, Director of CAE and Simulation at Plastic Technologies.  Sumit in his presentation explains the changing landscape of design and simulation in packaging industry. This presentation focuses on interplay between design and material distribution to help improve container performance.

The packaging industry is on the brink of process change. Design guidelines have matured to the point that it helps take concepts & convert them to viable production ready designs. However, the output from this stage does not tell us whether or not a specific performance characteristic—such as improving the drop impact performance—has been achieved on the container. Challenges exist with ideal thickness distribution (economics vs. optimal performance) for blow molded containers. Learn how Plastics Technology Inc uses simulation to 

• Study filling, packing and distribution of material that helps determine if a part can be blown with optimal thickness and geometry
• Predict whether or not the part can absorb the resulting stress after being dropped without rupturing.
