create solid stamp

[Luc419]

good evening, as from title I would like to know if it was possible, starting from a mold in x_t format, to get a solid through inventor, the geometry of the solid is quite complex.
every suggestion or advice is welcome, thanks to all

are more than 6 years that I do not use inventor, but I think it is possible to copy the surfaces and then "cucirle" between them and then create the solid of the artifact. Of course, if you want it faithful to the real size, you have to rescale it of how much the mold has been increased due to the withdrawal.

solid geometry is quite complex.

it is possible, already done several times, but with casket.
I don't know the functions of inventor.
x_t format should return you a solid closed.

However the procedure is this

1) all the holes of the expellers and of the spines or souls
2) Create a solid of a cube that has more or less the maximum size of the piece you have to extract
3) with a Boolean operation you will remove the mobile matrix from the cube solid, then remove the fixed matrix and finally any trolleys that create the subsquadra.
so doing you should get the piece produced by the mold, on which you will then apply the scale factor to eliminate the withdrawal.
so it seems simple.. all depends on the goodness of the x_t file
If the x_t file is not perfectly closed you would have surfaces and then you have to arm yourself with dummy patience and sew all the surfaces as wert recommended.

In fact, it seems to me everything but simple ? anyway the mold should be perfect because it is a mold given to a moldist so it should not have problems
Meanwhile thank you for the answers

but is it possible that no one on the net had to face the problem? because it happened to me only to read and find tutorials on the winter i.e. from the piece to the mold, but from mold to piece I found practically nothing

will it be because you always start from the 3d of the detail to print to shape the mold?
typically molding molds somewhere you should find the 3d of the piece. when you import the x_t file, try to turn off all the parts you don't need, and see if you have the piece left.
If yes, you just have to scale it to the stamping retreat.

as almost always cads offer more than one way to get the same result. Did you at least try to do what I told you or how he told you victorious? those are already two ways; different but both should bring you to the result. Then there may be others... Meanwhile try with those.

as he told me victorious I have no chance to use caia, now I try with your way

But it's not that you need cathe... is a modus that you can perform with inventor. are Boolean operations that inventor does without problems. make a larger parallelepiped of the alleged piece and then remove the matrix first and then the punch (as he told you, first you have to close all the holes that are there and the mold must be closed).

ah ok, because I tried with half mold to extrude from a plane parallel to the surface of support between the molds until following then locates the solid but it does not go, I closed the holes

 

[Vittorio]

sends images of the half mold.. Maybe we can figure out something more.
as you say.. I think you're using surfaces and not a boolean subtraction.

tomorrow I try to send a photo, now I don’t have it

 

[Luc419]

a thing like that

 

[Vittorio]

If those I have scored with red circles are holes, you have to close them
After that, if inventor allows it, you must subtract the two matrices from a cube having the max size of the piece to be recomposed.
the cube should not interfere with any mold hole
and the mold must be a solid

to understand if the mold is a solid.. You should make a mold table with a section.
if in the section the sampling means that it is a solid. otherwise the procedure I have indicated does not work

 

[Luc419]

ok thank you, sisi the mold is a solid, then the problem I think is the interference with the holes, because I closed them on the surface believing it was enough that, in fact “back” there are all the cooling channels therefore intersect them. but theoretically closing the holes on the surface and with an offset that is the average plan of the mold, on it I project the external geometric of the mold (indicatively that where there is the cutting edge) should not be able to extrude up to the solid so as to get half piece?

Anyway thank you for the availability

 

[Vittorio]

the holes you have to close them with addition of material.. You don't have to stop them with a surface.
I'm hard to give you some advice because I don't know inventor's limits/prays
