Extracting Mold Areas Surfaces

Extract Mold Areas organizes faces forming mold areas into datum surfaces structured in geometrical sets.

Select a pulling direction and validate.
  • If it does not yet exist, a geometrical set is created for each side (such as Cavity, Core, Other, Undercut, NoDraft) and each slider.
  • In each geometrical set, a datum surface is created for each set of faces forming a connected area.
Notes:
  • Datum surfaces do not keep a link with the pulling direction, therefore are not updated if the pulling direction is modified.
  • If you start Extract Mold Areas again from the same pulling direction, the resulting geometries are duplicated, not updated.
