Another possible approach is working from a Mold Project:

  • You create a Mold Project.
  • You insert the design part in the Mold Project.
  • Mold Tooling Design guides you through the conception of the Mold Base (Conceptual or detail design), as you create:
    • Molded Part Publications
    • An Insert Unit (Optional)
    • A Multiple Layout Insert (Optional, applies only to multiprints)
    • A Mold Base.

For more information, see Creating a Mold Project.

You can also work with a product structure you have created, used as template.

Mold Tooling Design can be considered as a tools box for mold makers. Use these tools to create Cooling Circuits and Runners and to place Components, Ejectors or Adaptive Systems.

Mold Tooling Design is a nativeapp available on the Cloud or on Premises.
