SplitWorks is a powerful environment including special menus, integrating the standard SolidWorks mold tools as well. FEATURES Initial core/cavity analysis including PL display and minimum draft face calculation. Dynamic Property Page including pop up menu functionality. Integrates standard mold menus. Multi-splitting capability. Parting surface generator. Hole filling menu. Solid insert creation. Full associativity between part and inserts. PARAMETRIC CORE/CAVITY DESIGN Parting surface application for injection molding, dies, progressive dies etc. Full associativity between part and insert (even for external file format changes i.e. IGES) SINGLE ENGINEERING MODEL FOR PLASTIC PART AND MOLD DESIGN Integrated with SolidWorks menus. Useful to both plastic part designer and mold manufacturer. Seamless integration between SplitWorks and SolidWorks functionality. SPLITWORKS FUNCTIONALITY Initial splitting Dynamic preview of core and cavity surfaces according to a specific direction. Heuristic straddle face angle analysis. Preview of parting line creation on “both side” surfaces. Split the part into 4 or 6 surfaces: Core, Cavity, No Draft, No Draft Core, No Draft Cavity, Both Direction Selective automatic split face creation according to split direction. Automatic parting line construction (including shut-offs). SplitWorks Feature Manager Dynamic (during the design process) face color classification and parting line display. Automatic (Face) Rebuild and Automatic Parting Line Rebuild options. Pop up menus including: Move Faces/Create Silhouette/Create New Group/Hide/Change Color/Select All Create/Update Surface to generate core/cavity/side core surfaces. Island Analysis to display (and select) face group fragments. Parting Surface Creation Plug holes in surfaces automatically or manually. Loft (with automatic correction) to generate parting surfaces. Insert Create solid core and cavity insert(s) from insert box and parting surfaces. Create side cores and pins from surface geometry. MISCELLANEOUS SplitWorks can split original SolidWorks parts or closed/non-closed imported surfaces.
