Moldplus

• Create Mastercam Curve 5axis toolpaths with 1-click—Once the geometries for the curves and vectors are created using the automatic function or the manual edge selection method, the geometry can be directly passed to the Mastercam curve 5-axis parameters and have the toolpath created.
• Create curves on edges and splines—Create curves and vectors by clicking on edges. Also, output the curves as parametric splines to allow for better machining results.

• Welding geometry—Quickly identify and create welding geometry (curves and vectors based on the intersection of edges) for the robotic welding industry where creation of such geometry is a tedious and painstaking task.
• Isolate inner and outer shell face enhancements—The selector for isolating inner and outer shell offers a slide bar to select faces on complex models more easily. Fillet faces (concave or convex) alone can be isolated and stored on separate layers.
• STL Utilities—The splitting interface has been improved with new tools for dynamic preview of slicing the STL bodies, ability to preview and create closed bodies, easier management of split bodies, and direct saving of the bodies as Mastercam entities. The STL create edge function also allows for previewing the edges that will be created and storing the body and edges directly as Mastercam entities.

Today’s competitive environment and globalization requires that mold makers manufacture molds cheaper, faster and better than ever before. Moldplus will allow you to meet these requirements while remaining competitive and profitable.

Moldplus is a family of powerful software tools specifically desgined for the advanced needs of toolmakers. For many years builders of complex tools have been using market-leading Moldplus products to help design and manufacture their molds, dies, models, and fixtures in the shortest possible timeframe with high quality and maximum profits.

Moldplus enables you to determine draft angles, split core and cavity surfaces, create parting lines, design complex run-ff surfaces and even manufacture EDM electrodes.  With Moldplus, precious machine time is never wated because you can be sure that the tool will be correct, functional, and of the highest quality before any machine tool is set-up or a single chip is made.

Model-makers, mold-makers, pattern-making, aerospace industry, and anyone involved in surface or solid modeling, Moldplus is the solution.

1-click Draft Surface Creation.	Fix bad surface models.

Moldplus Standard consists of surface trimming and extension tools, mold design tools such as Draft Angle Analysis, Core and Cavity separation and parting surface creation.

Moldplus Professional includes tools for untrimming surfaces, healing/fixing surfaces and tools to make Electrodes and surface extensions for vacuum forming tools. This package includes all of the features available in the Moldplus Standard package.

Moldplus Super Trim consists of all the trimming and untrimming features of Moldplus. These tools are handy to heal/fix bad surfaces or manipulate surface trim boundaries and patch complex holes.

• Sort points graphically by lines – This new function lets sort points by dynamically sketching lines to indicate the direction for the drilling points. Tolerance control is offered to select points that are close to a sketched line.
• Form definition enhancements – Library forms that are stored and processed are only stored for cylinders that can be machined from an indicated direction. Forms that need to be split for machining from both sides need to be manually or automatically split before applying drilling processes.
• Closest form identifier – Identify differences in minor diameter length and chamfer diameter AND apply existing library forms that match these parameters within a given tolerance.
• Define entry and exit parameters for Contour operations – The Contour settings dialog now offers options to define entry and exit controls for the library forms.
