INSIGHT ADVANCED FLOW+COOL+WARP
Course Description
What You Will Learn?
Students learn about the more complex analysis types available in Autodesk Moldflow Insight that were not covered in the Autodesk Moldflow Insight Fundamentals course. Additionally, Students will learn how to analyze how injection molded parts are cooled and how cooling, filling and packing influence the part’s warpage. You will also learn how to optimize the injection mold’s cooling system, and how to reduce warpage.
