Hi all, 

I was wondering if I create a symmetric laminate how will a geometrically non-symmetric structure affect the symmetric constraint?

Thanks

I have done thin parts about 1.5mm thick which were near flat shapes, the asymmetric laminate makes the part change shape once released so it is then nothing like your mould is. 

Less of of a problem with more complex shapes as these are quite stiff and less affected by the forces.
