Glossary
A
aggregation Aggregation is the recovery of the topological connections which existed in the original
molded part prior to successive transfer of some faces in a new Geometrical set.
C
cavity area
Area that can be removed from the mold in the pulling direction.
core area
Area that can be removed from the mold in the direction opposite to the pulling direction.
F
flag note A hyperlink.
L
lifter A mobile part designed to facilitate the removal of parts with hollow inside areas from the mold.
P
parting line The outer boundary of the molded part where no undercut is found.
parting surface The surface delimiting the separation between core area and cavity area.
powercopy A set of features that are grouped in order to be used in a different context and that can be re-specified according to the context when pasted.
pulling direction Direction of removal from the mold.
S
slider A mobile part designed to facilitate the removal of parts with draft surfaces from the mold. split the operation consisting in generating the parting surface on the core and cavity.
U
undercut Area that can not be removed from the mold.
