Designing a phone dock for manufacture

This was a uni project with the purpose of producing a simple design for manufacture, to learn more about the methods and requirements for injection moulding and mass manufacturing.

Flow

Not the best example of flow in this project but I certainly learned a lot about flow analysis and how better flow can be achieved in injection moulding manufacturing.

Draft

Draft to improve the life and function of the mould in injection moulding was an important lesson to learn, even the smallest section of missed draft or without a curved pit could ruin a product.
