Plastics Lesson 1: SOLIDWORKS and the 3DEXPERIENCE Plastic Injection App

Plastics Lesson 1: SOLIDWORKS and the 3DEXPERIENCE Plastic Injection App

In this lesson, simulate the injection molding of the SOLIDWORKS part, Switch Plate made from a single material using the Plastic Injection App on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. From SOLIDWORKS, save the part to the platform, introduce PLM concepts of Lock and Revision. From the SOLIDWORKS Task Pane, us the Plastics Injection App to define the Finite Element Model, material, domain and fill rate. Review the simulations, Fill, Pack + Cool, and Warp. Use animation of the Warp simulation to show the displacement contour plot.

Analysis Lesson 6: SOLIDWORKS and 3DEXPERIENCE Simulation Mechanical Scenario Creation

From SOLIDWORKS, save an assembly to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. Launch the Mechanical Scenario Creation App with the Abaqus solver to create two virtual bolt connectors with nuts. Create a Surface-Based contact. Surface-Based contact defines the interaction behavior between two discrete surface regions in the model.
