APPRENTICE/JUNIOR MOLD MAKER
Moldmaking is still a highly skilled trade requiring expertise in manual
machining, CNC machining, CNC wire EDM, CNC Ram EDM, surface grinding, hand
polishing and more. Because of the high skill and intense labor involved much of the
mold making in the US had been outsourced to low wage countries. Fortunately for the
US, many major companies are “reshoring” jobs back the US and there is high demand
for skilled tradesmen. The majority of plastic and rubber parts that are in existence
today are made using injection or transfer molds- requiring a mold to be manufactured
by a moldmaker.
