Now, in the market economy environment, you won't drive away the master immediately after you finish studying, but the master won't teach you technology so actively. Learning skills depends on your understanding. If you have a brain, you can learn it. You stay in that environment all day, exposed to mold all day. How can you learn nothing? Going up and down the mold and repairing the mold every day is a learning process. You can understand the structure of each set of molds, the differences of each set of molds, and analyze its uniqueness and personality. Understand the function of each part and the processing method of each part. In fact, plastic molds are those things, such as cavities, cores, fixed plates, loading plates, backing plates, guide posts, ejector pins, sliders, inclined guide posts, sprue sleeves, top plates, movable molds and fixed molds, but the cavity shapes of each set of molds are different. When you know all this, how did the masters do it? Keep it in mind and then learn to do it yourself. Ask more questions if you don't understand. In fact, all masters like apprentices who love to learn. Ask the master, and he won't tell you. In addition, we should read some books about molds, read what they say, enrich ourselves theoretically, and then start working.
