Regions

Regions are 2D enclosed areas that you create from a curve, or series of curves. The boundary of this enclosed area does not intersect itself.

Components you create from within Moldflow Insight, such as parting planes, mold surfaces, mold inserts, etc are called regions. The boundary lines of a region may be curved or straight, but they must be fully connected and must not intersect.

Regions are assigned the identification label 'R'. Every region has a unique identification number, comprised of the letter R followed by a number. When you select regions, the identifiers are listed in the selection list.
