Agentic AI will fundamentally change design in plastic injection molding

Simulation now returns results in seconds rather than hours, and an AI agent can drive it. It works through hundreds of variants overnight and has a ranked answer waiting by morning. This talk shows where that still fails today.
For decades the number of variants you could run was a question of available time, not curiosity. You draw a part, test two or three gate positions, and pick the best of a very small sample. That constraint is disappearing.
Dr. Bastiaan Oud walks through how the work splits between the agent and the solver, and what that changes for part quality and development time. The winning variant is verified on the classical numerical solver before anyone cuts steel. He also shows examples from live projects, including the runs where the agent got it wrong.
Come if you want a clear picture of how parts will be designed five years from now, and one thing you can try when you get back to the office.
