Course Description: The goal of this course is to teach you several manual mold creation techniques and how to use the Mold Tools in SolidWorks mechanical design automation software. In the course of doing this, you will learn SolidWorks surfacing tools.

SolidWorks Mold Tools are automated to a certain extent, but at times require manual intervention to complete a mold design. Since the Mold Tools rely heavily on surfacing, you must have a functional knowledge of SolidWorks surfacing in order to work effectively with the Mold Tools. Mold Tools do not use all of the surfacing features which are used in product design, however, so in this course you will learn a subset of the surfacing tools seen from the tooling point of view.
