Registering solids as inserts/plates

To register solids as inserts/plates:

  1. On the Core-Cavity wizard, select the Display the names of the selected items option if you want to check the names of the objects as you select them.
  2. Select the Select Workplane option, and select the relevant workplane.

    To register solids, you must also have a workplane at the centre of the plates. Its Z axis represents the main opening and closing direction of the mold.

  3. Select the Select cavity solid option, and select the solid which represents the cavity solid.
  4. Select the Select core solid option, and select the solid which represents the core solid.

    If the objects are not suitable, an error message will appear in the wizard.

  5. Click Register.

You can register multiple inserts by repeating the above steps.

When you have registered the solids as core and cavity inserts/plates, a table showing the sets of Cavity/Core/Inserts is displayed in the wizard. To check the items, click each icon in turn.
