SolidWorks Plastics 2024 Premium (Subscription valid until 11/2024)

SolidWorks Plastics 2024 Premium - (Maintenance Active Until 11/2024)

Unlock powerful injection molding simulation capabilities with SolidWorks Plastics 2024 Premium. This fully functional version, with its maintenance period active until November 2024, empowers you to optimize your plastic part and injection mold designs, predict and avoid manufacturing defects, and significantly reduce time-to-market and material costs.

Integrated seamlessly within the SolidWorks CAD environment, SolidWorks Plastics Premium offers an intuitive workflow for designers and engineers to simulate the entire injection molding process, from filling and packing to cooling and warpage.

What can you do with SolidWorks Plastics 2024 Premium?

• Simulate the complete injection molding process: Analyze how molten plastic flows into the mold cavity during the filling and packing phases.
• Predict and avoid manufacturing defects: Identify potential issues like sink marks, weld lines, air traps, short shots, and burn marks before committing to expensive tooling.
• Optimize part design for manufacturability: Evaluate different design iterations to ensure they can be molded efficiently and effectively.
• Optimize mold design: Determine optimal gate locations, runner system configurations, and cooling channel layouts.
• Analyze mold cooling: Simulate the cooling process to optimize cycle times and minimize part warpage.
• Predict part warpage: Understand how the part will deform after cooling, allowing for design adjustments or tooling compensation.
• Reduce material waste: Optimize runner systems and part thickness to use less plastic.
• Improve part quality and performance: Ensure parts meet strength, dimensional, and aesthetic requirements.
• Minimize costly physical prototypes: Validate designs virtually, reducing the need for multiple trial-and-error mold iterations.
• Accelerate time-to-market: Get products to market faster by resolving manufacturing issues early in the design phase.
