SOLIDWORKS Mold Design

Course Quick Info
Duration
3 days
Who Should Attend
Application Engineer, R&D Engineer, Product Designer or Engineer, Industrial Engineer
Introduction
The Mold Design course teaches you how to quickly generate the tooling for any given part and separate it into core and cavity components (or punch and die for Tool and Die applications). This knowledge is very valuable for most mechanical designers, especially designers of molds, embossing dies, nests, and welding/checking fixtures. You will also learn to use analysis tools for developing optimal parting lines, troubleshooting draft and undercut issues, plus importing and repairing third party geometry.
Objective
At the end of this program participants are expected to:
Create mold assemblies derived from your part designs
Automate the production of the mold to save you design time
Incorporate lifters, side cores and core pins in your mold design
Design Electrodes for your molds
