The Mold Properties tab of the Baffle dialog is used to specify the properties of the mold block containing the baffle.
Dialog elements
- Mold material
- Specifies the mold material in contact with the selected model feature.
The available options are:
- Use global setting in advanced options
- Select this option if you do not want to specify a local mold material in contact with this model feature.
- Select a different mold material
- Select this option if you want to specify a local mold material, different to the mold material specified in the advanced options, in contact with the top side of this model feature.
Note: Selecting a different mold material is a simple way to model the interface between the part and a mold insert, but you will get more accurate heat transfer results by modeling the insert as a separate volume.
