Do a modification of the geometry by sculpting

Required:

  1. a loaded geometry which is instanciated,
  2. assigned domains for part and mold,
  3. Bounds set so, that the relevant part (or area of the part is represented),
  4. a discretization for the sculpting feature.

Click onto “Sculpting” button in MAIN FEATURES to open the “Sculpting” Menu. The part disappears from the screen. In the SCUPLTING MENU you use “Initialize”. After the finish of the initialization procedure the “Sculpt” appears on the screen.Open the SCULPTING TOOLBAR.

Using Brushes – Tool Radius

Adjust the Tool Radius according to the local contours of the geometry:

  1. digital input into “Tool Radius”,
  2. scrolling with center mouse wheel within the “Tool Radius”
  3. with the mouse in the workspace window you may use the shortcut “Shift & scrolling”

In case sculpting result is not what was intended, simply click the „Undo” button or for recovery click “Redo” button.

Using Brushes – Tool Strength

Adjust the Tool Strength according to the local contours of the geometry:

  1. digital input into “Tool Strength”
  2. scrolling with center mouse wheel within the “Tool Strength”
  3. with the mouse in the workspace window you may use shortcuts “Crtl & scrolling”

In case sculpting result is not what was intended simply click the „Undo” button or for recovery click “Redo” button.

Analysis of the Diffusive Modulus

Click onto „Analysis“ in the MAIN FEATURES to change to the Analysis mode. Update the Modulus (Sculpt) by clicking onto  the „Update“ button in the ANALYSIS MENU. After computation of Modulus field use the „Show Isosurface“ button to see the Modulus Isosurface of the sculpt. You can switch between the different analysis views by selecting it with the „Solution“ show button . If the Sculpt does not show sufficient modification of the solidification path for controlled switch back to in the MAIN FEATURES and modify the Sculpt again. You may use clipping to properly place stencils: To open the Workspace view click onto Control button of your key beard and right mouse button to open the clipping configuration. Switch the operation mode to “Intersection” if the part disappears click. Move the section cut area by clicking and holding the relevant face of the clipping box and do drag and drop.
