Parting Attributes

Access: Open this function from one of the following locations:

Assign parting attributes to parting surfaces (faces)parting surfaces (faces). This attaches the parting surfaces to opening directions.

Parting surfaces separate the core and cavity mold halves; they are the contact surfaces of the two halves of the mold. Parting surfaces do not form the molded part.

A feature of the QuickSplit Operation is the ability to show the divided part in motion. In order for parting faces to be included in the motion visualization, they have to be assigned to the two part groups where they shutoff. The Parting Attributes function can perform this assignment automatically. It recognizes which faces are located at the boundaries of different groups of part faces and attaches parting status based on this information.
