Overview:

Phillips Plastics wanted to design ultramodern chemical safety goggles to customer's criteria for style, fit, assembly and ventilation and meet delivery target. Concept sketches of the goggles were drawn by hand and then imported into NX. The customer had supplied Phillips with a physical model of a human head, so that was laser scanned. The point data from the scan was converted into surfaces, creating a digital version of the head in NX. With this as a start, and some baseline data such as lens thickness criteria determined by an optics expert, the design work on the goggles began with the shaping of the surfaces using NX's freeform modeling capability.
