VR SOP Training for Rigid Plastics: Injection & Blow Moulding

Faster setups, fewer defects and safer changeovers

Moulding shops juggle mould changes, temperature settings, purging and QC checks all day. Spark creates bespoke VR training that mirrors your presses, hot runners, robots, EOAT, extruders and QC labs—so operators practise the right order and settings first.

Where VR helps most

  • Mould changeovers: safe lifting, connections, clamp force and zero/reference.
  • Start-up settings: melt temps, pressures, speeds, cooling and hold times.
  • Defect control: flash, short shots, sink, warpage and colour change.
  • Safety: guarding, nip points, hot surfaces and LOTO.

How our custom build works

  1. Capture SOPs & CTQs: your standard settings, changeover steps and defect checks.
  2. Build scenarios: tooling change, colour/purge, parameter tuning, robot handoff.
  3. Coach with an avatar: simple prompts, visuals and “hold points”.
  4. Measure: setup time, right-first-time and defect hotspots.

Benefits

  • Shorter downtimes and more stable cycles.
  • Less scrap and better cosmetic quality.
  • Safer work during hot and heavy changeovers.

Why Spark

We train the exact method you use on your machines and tools—so skills transfer immediately.
