Ejection Design: Ejection Devices

Add an ejection device from your catalog to your mold. The design of the ejection system is very important.

 

General Interaction

The general interaction is similar to that for adding mold parts. The only difference is the dialog displayed during the required step 1.

 

Required Step 1

Select an ejection device.

The Add Mold Ejection Devices dialog is displayed:

  1. Browse to the required catalog location.

  2. The Ejection Device sub-category is automatically displayed. Select the appropriate sub-category of the component.

  3. The items in the sub-category group are displayed. Select the component item.

  4. Press the Show Data button to choose the Catalog parameters for the selected component item, or press OK to position the mold part (Required Step 2) or press the Cancel button to exit.

If you pressed the Show Data button , the Show Data dialog is displayed. This dialog enables you to select a specific set of pre-defined component parameters from the Catalog parameter table.

 

The remaining interaction is identical to that for adding mold parts.

Press OK or Apply in the Feature Guide to complete the function.

 

Note: Ejectors of a different length / shape should not be added together in one step as instances. In this case, add every different ejector separately. You can easily do this by using the “Apply” button when adding catalog parts.

 

Designing the Ejection system

When adding the ejectors and using the Cut option, all the relevant plates and components will automatically be cut, except the Active Parts.

The holes in the Active Parts and the ejector lengths should be defined manually as required.
