Mold Design

[bbenitez]

Good Monday Morning all -



I'm looking to do some mold design - haven't done any mold design since
1978.

Mostly small single pull parts with perhaps one or two side features
(holes).



1.) Can anyone recommend a good, current design guide (book, etc).



2.) Pro-E tutorial??



TIA

Hi Anthony,

Here is a book for mold design engineering: Injection Mold Design Engineering by David O. Kazmer. Can be orderd through amazondotcom

Mold design training through eLearning at PTC is very good for learningthe picks/clicks and functionality in Pro/E. Nothing beats practical experience though.

I designed molds in Pro/E for 12 years, feel free to reach out to medirect with any questions: dhippeateacpdsdotcom.
