What to Expect
In this course we are going to design a game controller housing for the PCB from our game controller design course. This housing will be ready for Injection Molding. The main project includes a few different steps:
- Common Terms - Review of common terms and geometry for molded applications.
- Mold Review - Taking a look at an actual mold to identify what they actually look like.
- Design Set-up - Creating parameters to help drive key aspects such as draft, wall thickness, and rib thickness.
- Housing Design - Creating a base shape with applicable draft.
- Molded Part Design - Creating features that can be injection molded.
- Quotes - Quoting the design and review any possible changes.
We will be exploring some absolute basic concepts and walking through every step of the design process to create a set of parts that can be injection molded.
