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.
