Medical product design may call for sheet metal enclosures, or the surfacing capabilities to create custom injection moulded parts and moulds. Package designs can also require integration with existing parts and assemblies.

• SolidWorks sheet metal functions include advanced bends, cuts, fold/unfold, hems, jogs, lofted bends and easy sheet metal part drawing development, to name a few. These give designers the ability to create the necessary chassis products to hold motherboards, rack- mounted devices, and all types of end products.

• SolidWorks powerful surfacing, filleting, variable radius filleting, progressive loft, and advanced surface fill capabilities meet the complex surfacing and filleting needs of plastic enclosure designers

• SolidWorks is unique. Its patented SmartMate Technology enables parts to be assembled in place, simply by clicking on the mating surfaces of both parts, along with automatic insertion of fasteners, necessary washers and hex nuts.
