Design plastic parts more efficiently and accurately. Take the complexity out of getting your injection molds right the VERY first time . In a matter of minutes you can test your designs for possible flaws and defects, eliminating rework of expensive molds and reducing costs. SolidWorks Plastics makes it easy for parts and injection molds. You don’t have to be an expert to easily identify and address companies that design plastic parts or potential defects by making changes to the part or mold design, plastics material, or injection molds to predict and avoid processing parameters, saving resources, time and money. Manufacturing defects during the earliest stages of design, eliminating costly rework, improving quality, and accelerating time-to- intuitive workflow and design advise to market. Fully integrated with SolidWorks CAD, SolidWorks Plastics works directly on your 3D model, avoiding model conversion issues. You see this intuitive software helps part designers, the impact ...

Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Assembly (DFA) always has been a challenging proposition when it comes to new product development or cost savings on existing products. At the end of the day, products have to meet the requirements of our end customers. This presentation is about design for manufacturing and assembly, how we use our CAD tools day-in and day-out, in terms of leveraging on the capabilities of 3D CAD, specifically as addressed by quality requirements. It starts with manufacturing of the individual parts and assembling of the same. Benefits of DFM and A using SOLIDWORKS First time right Improved profitability Reduced service calls Enhance Quality Team EGS Website Mail id Social Media

Which design works best? How do you know you have the best design? When it comes to choosing the best design for your project, do you: Go with your gut? Cross your fingers and hope for the best? Methodically test a series of expensive physical prototypes? Now there is a better way. Validate your designs before Prototype and manufacture Products, with design validation tools from SolidWorks Simulation. SolidWorks Simulation Standard is recently introduced by SolidWorks to enable every designer and engineer to simulate and analyze their product performance with fast, easy-to-use CAD-embedded analysis solution. It will also keep your investment low. SolidWorks Simulation Standard can helps you to predict product performance accurately, while your in design stage itself a nd to speedup your design process, innovate faster, and more confident in the product performance. SolidWorks Simulation Standard software is u...

Whether occurring in nature or in the mind of a designer, curves and surfaces that are pleasing to the eye are not necessarily easy to express mathematically. In Solidworks 2014, Solidworks introduced a new entity called Style Spline . I would like to share about mathematical concepts in style spline. Style spline is something differs from spline which we are using currently, Because Spline curve is a piecewise cubic curve , made of pieces of different cubic curves glued together. Style spline is a Bezier curve . A Bezier curve is one of the parametric curve frequently used in computer graphics and related fields. But Bezier curves differ from other types of parametric curves by the type of basis polynomials used to form them The study of these curves was however first developed in 1959 by mathematician Paul de Casteljau using de Casteljau algorithm at Citroën. The idea of this algorithm is plotting the curve through repeate...

Are you striving to solve your Quality Issues upfront @ the Design Stage? SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD provides a 3D workspace which showcases your final results before getting it for production. As a part of DFMXpress, the analysis tool which helps in upstream validation of difficult areas of manufacturing, following are the set of turn-rules based checks. Sequencing with our earlier posts, following are the turn-rules: TURN RULES 1. MINIMUM CORNER RADII FOR TURNED PARTS Avoid sharp inside corners. Provide a generous inside radius to accommodate a tool with a large nose radius, which is less prone to breakage A turn-down surface perpendicular to an un-machined (cast) surface might cause burrs Minimum corner radii for turned parts 2. BORE RELIEF FOR TURNED PARTS: Provide tool relief for the bottoms of blind bored holes in turning operations. Bore relief for turned parts Team EGS Website Mail id Social Media

Is your company equipped enough to design your plastic injection mold in an invariable environment? It may sound hard. But SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD software allows us to design plastic injection molds with composite geometries. It provides a 3D workspace which showcases our final results before getting it for production. One can also validate the mechanical functionality of the molds and the components which in turn increases your productivity multi-fold. SolidWorks can handle various CAD data and provides access to a range of add-on mold design and production applications. Cut down your mold design cycle, import and export various data formats and enhance your design communication with your customers, with the help of SolidWorks 3D CAD. In continuation with our earlier blog posts, following are the injection molding rules-based checks: MINIMUM WALL THICKNESS : Walls which are too thin can cause filling problems and develop high molding stresses and also lead to structura...
