How to use Cavity tool to create virtual molded component in SOLIDWORKS

Using Cavity Feature for Creating Virtual Molded Parts in SolidWorks | Complete Tutorial

Welcome to this step-by-step SolidWorks tutorial where we explore the powerful Cavity feature to design virtual molded parts! Whether you're a beginner looking to expand your modeling skills or an experienced CAD user aiming to speed up your tooling design workflow, this video is for you.

In this tutorial, you'll learn:
✅ What the Cavity feature is and how it works
✅ How to set up a mold base and core using part and assembly files
✅ How to subtract material from a mold block using the Cavity tool
✅ Best practices for clean feature definitions and cavity accuracy
✅ How this technique can streamline injection molding simulations and prototyping

Why Use the Cavity Feature?
The Cavity feature in SolidWorks is essential for designing molded parts like plastic components, packaging molds, and die casts. It allows you to simulate the material displacement that occurs during the injection molding process, saving time and improving accuracy in real-world manufacturing.
