SOLIDWORKS Plastics

SOLIDWORKS Plastics

SOLIDWORKS® Plastics is a simulation tool that allows for the analysis of plastic parts and injection molds. By simulating the flow of melted plastic during the injection molding process, it can predict potential manufacturing defects. This enables you to assess the manufacturability of your parts during the design phase in a quick and efficient manner.

SOLIWORKS Plastics Licences Offering

To ensure that parts are able to be manufactured during the design process, SOLIDWORKS Plastics Standard provides an easy-to-learn and user-friendly simulation tool. The software is fully integrated within SOLIDWORKS CAD, allowing you to analyze and make modifications to your part designs while optimizing for form, fit, and function.
SOLIDWORKS Plastics Professional is an extension of SOLIDWORKS Plastics Standard, which allows for the analysis of mold designs. The software offers user-friendly tools that enable you to efficiently analyze both single and multi-cavity mold layouts, as well as family mold layouts that include sprues, runners, and gates. Additionally, you can estimate cycle time and optimize feed system design with ease.
SOLIDWORKS Plastics Premium includes advanced simulation capabilities that allow for the analysis of mold cooling line layouts and part warpage. By optimizing cooling line layouts, cycle times can be minimized and manufacturing costs can be reduced.
