Session 5: Is the Plastic Part Strong & Manufacturable?

3D Rendering with simulation of bicycle front fender

This session demonstrates injection molding simulation workflow for assessing manufacturability and structural strength of plastic parts designed in SOLIDWORKS. Engineers can get upfront answers to questions such as: Is this plastic part going to fill ? Will there be air traps or weld lines on visible surface? Will it satisfy required strength? to identify manufacturing defects and estimate performance even before designing expensive molds and manufacturing plastic parts in large volumes.
