Class Description
In this 4-day class, Participants will learn to become more efficient at creating digital prototypes, running analyses and interpreting the results of most of the analysis types available in the Basic package. Autodesk Moldflow is plastics simulation software used by designers, engineers and analysts to improve plastic parts designs, injection mold design and the injection molding process. Moldflow Insight allows users to take advantage of in-depth plastic molding simulation.
