Creating a customized warp quality criterion

If you are running an analysis sequence that includes warp, you have the option to create your own custom warp quality criterion.

Note: You cannot create a customized warp criterion until you have created a node list or critical dimension to analyze. It is not necessary to specify an anchor plane, because what is used in the study is applied by default.

1. Click (Home tab > Molding Process Setup panel > Optimization) to open either Parametric Study orDesign of Experiment (DOE) from the Optimization Method dialog that appears.
2. Select the Criteria tab and scroll down the list to the Warp selection.
3. Click New Warp Criterion to open the Select type of Warp criterion dialog.
4. Select the radio button and select that designates either the critical dimension or list of nodes you previously specified and select the name you previously assigned from the drop-down list.
5. The selected data is now listed under the warp element of the criteria tab and so will be included in the analysis.
