In this SolidWorks tutorial we’ll learn how to design for rapid plastic injection molding as well as 3D printing.
This will include taking advantage of design intent to help us create parts that are fully editable after the assembly has been created. We’ll also learn how to design internal bodies and assembly components into these parts. After generating our CAD model, we’ll take it to the next step with some realistic rendering.
All of these techniques are currently sought after in the Industrial Design world and having a clear understanding about how plastic parts are made from sketch to production will help you become a well-rounded designer.
