See all those plastic things right in front of you? Your monitor, pen, letter opener, printer, lamp, wireless router, headphones, tape dispenser, CD player, camera, cell phone, and even the glasses lens on you face we all designed by a plastic injection mold designer.
Too bad the general public is so unaware of where all these things originate, mold designers are among the unsung heroes of modern life! They generally work alone or in small groups, daily dreaming up ways to produce all the the things we tend to take for granted.
Most designers either learned at at technical college or on the job. In my experience, most learned on the job and were, in fact, previously mold makers. This is a great way to learn how to design molds because it is not so theoretical and life is much easier for the guy making the mold: the mold maker.
