InsertMoldCoreCavitySolids Method (IFeatureManager)

Creates a core/cavity solid feature.

.NET Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Function InsertMoldCoreCavitySolids( _
   ByVal Dist1 As Double, _
   ByVal Dist2 As Double, _
   ByVal Setback As Boolean, _
   ByVal Angle As Double _
) As Feature
Visual Basic (Usage) 
Dim instance As IFeatureManager
Dim Dist1 As Double
Dim Dist2 As Double
Dim Setback As Boolean
Dim Angle As Double
Dim value As Feature
 
value = instance.InsertMoldCoreCavitySolids(Dist1, Dist2, Setback, Angle)
C# 
Feature InsertMoldCoreCavitySolids( 
   double Dist1,
   double Dist2,
   bool Setback,
   double Angle
)
C++/CLI 
Feature^ InsertMoldCoreCavitySolids( 
&   double Dist1,
&   double Dist2,
&   bool Setback,
&   double Angle
) 

Parameters

Dist1
Length of the extrusion in Direction 1
Dist2

Length of the extrusion in Direction 2

Setback

True to enable setback surface, false to not

Angle

Draft angle for the setback surface

Return Value

Pointer to the IFeature object

Remarks

To use this method:

  • The Parting Line feature must exist.

  • The parting surface must be generated.

  • The part must be separated into core and cavity (sheet bodies).

  • A sketch describing the outline of the mold block must exist. The sketch must be perpendicular to the pull direction. Usually, the sketch is a rectangle that includes the part (core and cavity).

The location of the sketch plane specifies the parting plane in the setback surface option.

  • Without the setback surface option, the parting surface must extend beyond the block sketch so that the parting surface is cut off by the block.

  • With the setback surface option, the parting surface should be included within the block sketch. The parting plane (sketch plane) cannot intersect with the parting surface. Therefore, the parting plane must be either higher or lower than the parting surface. From the parting surface, a set of ruled surfaces is generated to be trimmed by the parting plane.
