Hi all,
I am trying to create a two piece mold for the attached part.
I've already created a closed off surface for the hole down the middle (I think it will work this way), but when trying to create a parting surface, Solidworks fails due to "a geometric constraint".
Any ideas as to what is going wrong, or any advice on how to create this mold?
Thanks!
Hello Andrew,.. you say, 2 piece mold?.. can we assume it is a silicon mold, peeled off... or, you lift off the top (xcross) and screw off the base?
Wow yep that's what I was looking for, thank you!
Way more steps than I thought it would be.
Do you mind sharing the 3D files?
FYI, this will be a 3D printed mold (Formlabs high temp material) and I'll use a desktop injection molding machine to shoot.
