LS Mtron Injection Molding Machines USA, Peachtree Corners, Ga., and Orbital Plastics Consulting have joined forces to offer scientific injection molding training. Umberto Catignani, president of Atlanta-based training firm Orbital, will teach the hands-on courses at LS Mtron’s technical center in Wood Dale, Ill.
