FimmTech Inc., founded by injection molding consultant, trainer and Plastics Technology contributor Suhas Kulkarni, is launching online versions of its Nautilus process development software as well as its Scientific Molding and Design of Experiments (DOE) process development course at NPE2024. It is also releasing the third edition of his book, “Robust Process Development and Scientific Molding,” as well as research on the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning to determine machine tonnage.

Kulkarni and FimmTech have trained employees at hundreds of companies globally using his flagship process development course on Scientific Molding and Design of Experiments (DOE). At the show, the company will launch an online version of that instructional seminar, which will include a complete certification program. In addition, a web version of FimmTech’s complete process development software, Nautilus, will be released. Kulkarni says the web version will ensure seamless access without the hassle of installations or upgrades, giving users the most-up-to-date features immediately.

In addition, a third edition of his “Robust Process Development and Scientific Molding” book will now be available. Kulkarni notes that the third edition features an all-new new chapter on melt preparation in addition to several new enriched sections in each chapter. Existing figures were updated and several new figures were added for better comprehension of the subject. Finally, as part of an R&D project, FimmTech will also detail experiments with AI and ML technologies to build a tonnage predictor based on existing processes and designs.
