Book Description

April 1, 1999 156690188X 978-1566901888 1
Pro/ENGINEER Solutions and Plastic Design guides readers through practical examples of plastic components modeling, teaching robust modeling techniques and providing ?inside? tips to delivering a manufacturable design. Using a series of exercises and tutorials, readers will learn to identify and model part surfaces for injection molding, split design assemblies into components, and use analytical tools to evaluate the quality of the finished design project. Because Pro/ENGINEER CAD models designed for manufacture in plastic are less intuitive to work with, the overall philosophy of how to approach such a part design as presented in this book differs sharply from the basic building block construction techniques in other Pro/ENGINEER tutorials.

3.0 out of 5 stars Useful for those new to the design of molded plastic parts., July 24, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Pro/engineer Solutions & Plastics Design (Paperback)
Excellent book for people new to the design of injection molded parts. A good introductory text with an overview of some common processes used to manufacture molded plastic components. If you are new to the design of molded plastic components and are a novice or intermediate Pro/E user then this book will serve you well. Basic design considerations are presented along with techniques on how to capture them using Pro/E.

2.0 out of 5 stars Just not much here, April 27, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Pro/engineer Solutions & Plastics Design (Paperback)
I am in between a novice/intermediate user level in Pro E 20. I have a small background in plastics injection molding but mostly silicone molding. This book spends most of the time explaining basic injection molding design (things like draft, runners, core/cavity). But very the discussion of these features is very basic and mostely antedotal. You could learn just about everything covered in this book in about 1 hour talking with a mold designer and probably alot more with the mold designer. If you have been commissioned to start designing molds then you will need a hell of alot more then this book offers you. The final section of the book has work excercises designing parts. But it just tells you to design some parts on Pro E, NOT how to use Pro E to design the parts. I have done several tutorials that cover general features of Pro E but was looking for something that gave some new features in Pro E and HOW tos on those features. Not in this book.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not worth it., May 11, 2000
This review is from: Pro/engineer Solutions & Plastics Design (Paperback)
If you want to learn how to design plastic parts on Pro E this book has absolutly no interest... It shows beautiful models but figure out yourself how to create them on Pro E. Good luck!
