Plastic bottle project (free CAD download file)

designed in Siemens NX6

Design of plastic bottle. This project is challenge from one of my blog readers, who saw shampoo bottle blog "Bet you can't make this", so he sent me images of bottle (green bottle images) he designed and asked me to design it too. Here is e-mail he sent to me:
"Poštovani,
u prilogu Vam šaljem nekoliko slika jedne lijepe boce pa Vas molim da je stavite na svoj blog.
Ovo je izazov a ne ona vaša boca za šampon."

Bet you can't make this

Shampoo bottle 

Designed in Siemens NX

This is one 'just for fun' project. it started as bet "you can't make it like this without CMM" (Coordinate Measuring Machine machine that 'scan' 3D points of objects so designers can use them to recreate parts) it end as mold design tryout.

Plastic oil can

Designed in Siemens NX

finished design

The project is made ​​by measuring the current prototype. Compared to the prototype difference is in the number of ribs and on the product label placement size. All other dimensions are as much as possible same as the original can.
