Cosmetic Packaging CAD Design: 150ml Tube in SolidWorks

Here is a professional, SEO-optimized portfolio description tailored for your Cad Crowd profile. It highlights your technical proficiency in SolidWorks, your attention to mechanical accuracy, and subtly integrates your studio's brand. Project Overview This portfolio piece showcases a precision-engineered 150ml cosmetic squeeze tube, meticulously modeled in SolidWorks. Adapted from a standard reference photograph, the objective was to reverse-engineer the visual concept while strictly controlling the internal volume, surface transitions, and mechanical dimensions for real-world manufacturing. Key Design Features & Surface Modeling Complex Surfacing: Engineered a smooth, mathematically continuous transition from a perfect 35.5 mm circular cross-section at the neck to a flattened, 52 mm wide profile at the sealed end. Intricate Groove Geometry: Designed a series of pronounced, uniform grooves that originate from a common small-diameter circle near the cap and progressively fan upward and outward as the body widens. Perfect Symmetry: Maintained flawless front/back and left/right symmetry without any surface twisting or pinching, ensuring an aesthetically pleasing and highly manufacturable final product. Production-Ready Solid: Built as a clean, watertight solid body (rather than a simple surface shell) to allow for accurate volume calculations and downstream tooling. Technical Specifications Target Capacity: 150 ml (Internal volume strictly verified via SolidWorks Mass Properties at ~150.2 cm³) Wall Thickness: 0.3 mm nominal thickness maintained throughout the body Overall Dimensions: 155 mm Total Height x 52 mm Maximum Width Neck Connection: 35.5 mm Outside Diameter (ready for custom cap integration) Software Used: SolidWorks Deliverable Format: STEP (Standard for the Exchange of Product model data)
