Creating Parting Surfaces
Create parting surfaces, which are extruded from parting lines, to separate the mold cavity from the core.
- Click Parting Surfaces
(Mold Tools toolbar) or .
- Make appropriate selections in the PropertyManager for Mold Parameters, Parting Line, Parting Surface, and Options. Then click
.The parting surfaces appear in the Parting Surface Bodies
folder, which is created by the software under the Surfaces Bodies folder in the FeatureManager design tree.
To create a tooling split (the next step
in the process), you need at least three surface bodies in the Surface Bodies folder:
a core surface body, a cavity surface body, and a parting surface body.
