About Presenter and Presentation information:
"All about Plastics – An Introduction to SolidWorks Plastics"
Earlier this year, SolidWorks introduced SolidWorks Plastics into its product portfolio. For companies that design plastic parts or injection molds, SolidWorks Plastics software helps users to predict and avoid manufacturing defects during the initial stages of part and mold design, eliminating costly mold rework, improving part quality and decreasing time to market.

Thanks to Matt DEROV who agreed to come to St. Louis and present the SolidWorks Plastics solutions to STL SolidWorks user group. Matt DEROV has worked for DS SolidWorks for more than 4 years.
