Mold Tooling Design
It is always better to identify issues early into the mold design process, it will be easier and cheaper to fix them.
One example is the possible conflicts between ejectors and various systems such as cooling.
A good practice is to design a concept version of the mold and quickly define ejectors with the Mold Tooling Design Form Components reservation command that allows to reserve space for ejectors or core pins without selecting specific component references.
Placing Flat Ejectors is quite complex has not only the flat ejector center shall be properly defined but also its orientation so the plastic part will be properly ejected.
The flat ejectors orientation is driven by the part plastic geometry, so the form ejector command can use a sketch of points created on a sketch curve to facilitate the flat ejectors positioning:
-Create points on curve or circle for positions
-Generated axis system will be tangent to the curve/circle.
Benefits
-Ensure associativity between Form Components (ejectors) and the selected curves
-Follow the Design change
