Class Description

This class will help you design parts that will be made from an injection molding process. Autodesk Inventor has some very powerful tools that greatly assist the design of plastic parts, and these tools will be covered in this class. We will provide design rules and suggestions, including draft angles, wall thickness, surface textures, etc. We will also help you pick the plastic material to use for your application. We will focus on practical applications and real-life examples.

Key Learning

• Use Inventor tools to design plastic injection molded parts
• Design good plastic injection molded parts
• Assess surface textures and how they will change your parts design
• Describe the materials that can be used in injection molding and assess which one is appropriate for your application
