Index IP

Every component in TopSolid'Mold has an index IP indicating to the system if it is allowed or not to make a process on another component. The scale goes from :

-100 : Plastic part

to

100 : Mold plates

 

This means that a component index 40 can "machine" a component index 100, but a component index 100 will no be able to "machine" a component index 40.

The plastic part, because its index is -100, can not be affected by ANY component.

 

Sample with mold element

 

-100 : Part to inject

 

10 Screw

 

30 Ejector pin

 

90 Lifter

 

95 Core / Cavity blocks

 

100 Moldbase plates

 

The elements can operate the others in the direction of the arrow.
