SOLIDWORKS Plastics makes it easy for companies that make plastic parts or injection molds to accurately predict part quality from the earliest stages of the design process. SOLIDWORKS Plastics helps you to simulate and predict mold filling patterns, prevent product defects, and reduce your costs and product development timelines all directly in your familiar SOLIDWORKS interface.
Below are some helpful learning resources to get started with SOLIDWORKS Plastics which is broken down into three different categories.
