SOLIDWORKS® Plastics delivers easy-to-use simulation for analyzing plastic parts and injection molds. It simulates how melted plastic flows during the injection molding process to predict manufacturing-related defects so you can quickly evaluate part manufacturability while you design.
• Virtually assess the manufacturability and quality of injection molded part designs and tooling
• Leverage easy-to-use simulation to reduce development time and costs
• Evaluate effectiveness of mold colling system designs for the right technical insights at the right time
• Maintain associativity with SOLIDWORKS CAD data and workflows
