Set up your foam part, nozzles, materials, tooling and process parameters prior to
analysis.
Note: Before setting up your model, you can also run an optional pouring cup test to
understand the properties of your foaming material.
Pouring Cup Test
Use the basin (cup) icon to run an optional pouring cup test to evaluate a material that you want to assign to your model for a foaming simulation.
Foam Part
Use the Foam Part icon to designate the foam part in your model geometry.
Nozzle
Use the Nozzle icon to define a path or stationary set of injection points for the nozzle to release the foaming material into the mold.
Materials
Review, create, import, export, modify and assign materials through the Materials dialog.
Vents
Use the Vents icon to define vents that enable gases to escape from the part and mold.
Process Parameters
Use the Process Parameters icon to define the filling, gelling and tilt-pouring processes of the simulation.
