There are a few concepts that may be worth considering, but which are not required for basic modeling.
Topics in this section
Gravity direction
The direction of gravity is an optional analysis input that you can specify for a 3D Fill+Pack analysis. This allows you to investigate the effects of gravity on the injection molding process for your part.
Cavity/core side mold temperatures
If you have a molding scenario where certain areas of the mold are known to have higher or lower temperatures, you can simulate this using the Ideal cavity-side mold temperature and Ideal core-side mold temperature. For a Fill+Pack analysis, use this property to simulate a mold that does not have a constant temperature.
