The Gate Location analysis is used to recommend injection locations for the part. This analysis works for all analysis technologies and is used as a preliminary input for a full analysis.
Gate Region Locator algorithm
The Gate Region Locator algorithm determines and recommends suitable injection locations based on criteria such as the part geometry, flow resistance, thickness, and molding feasibility. The Gate Region Locator algorithm produces the Gate Location Analysis result.
Advanced Gate Locator algorithm
The Advanced Gate Locator algorithm identifies optimal injection locations based on minimizing the flow resistance.
Prohibited Gate Nodes
Prohibited gate nodes are used to block the Gate Location analysis algorithm from automatically setting injection locations at those locations.
