Core & Cavity Builder
The
Core & Cavity Builder provides powerful advanced tools for creating
cores, cavities and side cores that are associative to the part
model. IMOLD uses surfaces extracted from the part to split the
core and cavity inserts. A Draft Analysis tool allows the designer
to quickly identify potential trouble spots in the part model. The
two parting methods- Automatic and Interactive - can help to separate
any part quickly and accurately. You can even combine the two for
specially complicated parts that cannot be accomplished by either
method alone.
Other features
include - hole patching utilities that can close holes in the part
so that the surface used for splitting is complete, utilities for
creating runoff surfaces that will extend beyond the insert boundaries,
an intuitive Insert Creator and utilities for copying surfaces to
the inserts. The Core/Cavity Builder alone will help reduce your
design times to a large extent.
