3DEXPERIENCE Plastic Injection Engineer Role
The 3DEXPERIENCE Plastic Injection Engineer Role provides a solution for engineers who assess plastic parts for manufacturability, quality, and cost through filling and packing simulations. Validate and optimize plastic part and mold tooling designs by simulating the filling, packing, warpage, and most cooling early in the development process.

Overview
Plastic Injection Engineer Role
The 3DEXPERIENCE Plastic Injection Engineer Role is a Base Role for engineers who assess plastic parts for manufacturability, quality, and cost through filling, packing, and warp simulations. This role brings easy-to-use injection molding simulation directly to the designers of plastic parts and injection molds. It simulates how melted plastic flows during the injection molding process to predict manufacturing-related defects on plastic parts. You can quickly evaluate manufacturability while you design, to eliminate costly part redesign, improve part quality, and accelerate time to market. Plastic part designers and product developers can analyze and modify designs at the same time as optimizing for form, fit, and function. Minimal simulation knowledge is needed and workflows are made easy through a guided simulation assistant.
Plastic Injection Engineer benefits from Simulation Data Science capabilities enabling all simulation activities, models, and results to be linked, traced, updated, re-used, and analyzed with ease by all impacted users. The Plastic Injection Engineer Role inherits the value of either of the following Platform Options as pre-requisites: Simulation Foundation (SEI) provides apps and services that allow all users to access the corporate library of deployed simulation methods and benefit from a single location to find and monitor all of their simulation studies.
- Virtually test the performance of plastic part and mold tooling designs with an intuitive, guided simulation assistant that minimizes the learning curve
- Cover the needs for all industries, all key workflows, and all user personas with a single role
- Predict common molding defects including: weld-lines, sink marks, air traps, and incomplete filling (short shots)
- Evaluate the effectiveness of mold cooling systems designs
- Apply advanced structural capabilities available in the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform, such as non-linear multi-scale, material modeling, directly on a common model
- Leverage process automation, design of experiments, and advanced optimization tools available in the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform
Features
- Integration with design specification to validate plastic parts manufacturing
- Simple, easy to use interface with a guided simulation assistant to minimize the learning curve
- Predicts common molding defects including, weld-lines, sink marks, air traps and incomplete filling (short shots)
- Predicts required injection pressures and tool clamping forces, enabling selection of an appropriate injection molding machine
