Course details

The SolidWorks Simulation for Packaging Industry course is designed to equip participants with the skills to analyze, optimize, and validate packaging designs using SolidWorks Simulation tools. The course covers fundamental principles of structural analysis, including stress, strain, deformation, and factor of safety, specifically applied to packaging materials and components. Participants will learn how to simulate various loading conditions, such as compression, drop, vibration, and stacking loads, to ensure the durability and reliability of packaging designs. The program emphasizes real-world applications, helping students understand material behavior, packaging performance, and failure mechanisms under different conditions. Through hands-on exercises, learners will gain proficiency in setting up finite element models, defining boundary conditions, and interpreting simulation results. The course also explores optimization techniques to reduce material usage while maintaining structural integrity and cost efficiency. Students will develop the ability to predict packaging performance before physical prototyping, saving time and resources. Emphasis is placed on safety, sustainability, and regulatory compliance within the packaging industry. By the end of the course, participants will be capable of using simulation insights to enhance packaging design, improve product protection, and make informed engineering decisions. The curriculum bridges theoretical knowledge and practical skills, preparing participants for challenges in modern packaging engineering. Case studies from the food, beverage, consumer goods, and e-commerce sectors demonstrate industry-relevant scenarios and problem-solving approaches.

Questions and Answers

Q: You're seeing higher than expected stress in a corrugated panel when running a linear static study and you google "SolidWorks Simulation corrugated board orthotropic vs isotropic model packaging". One variable changed: the material model was switched from orthotropic to isotropic. What happens downstream and what’s the correct response?

A: A: Averaging MD/CD moduli stiffens the weak direction. That’s why deflection falls. Fix the material, not the solver. B: Sounds safe, but it’s false comfort — the response isn’t uniformly conservative. C: Buckling physics don’t get cleaner by lying about stiffness. D: Tolerances don’t recover lost anisotropy.
