DESCRIPTION
NEW SolidWorks® PlasticsInjection molding simulation for designers of plastic parts and injection molds. Evaluate the manufacturability of parts and molds while designing for form, fit, and function.For Plastic Part DesignersPart designers get rapid feedback on how modifications to wall thickness, gate locations, materials, or geometry can affect the manufacturing of their partFor Mold DesignersQuickly create and analyze single, Multi-cavity, and family mold layouts, including Sprues, runners, and gates.Getting the Right ResultsThe Results Adviser provides practical design advice and troubleshooting tips to help diagnose and solve potential problems.
