Checking for draft and undercuts
Checking for draft and undercuts
(OP)
In a demo for Mold Wizard they changed the color of sheets from one direction only. This allowed the operator to see if there was any undercuts. Can this be done quickly without Mold Wizard?
Thanks,

If you have license for shape studio,you can use analysis draft command.This will give you a very good visualization of the surfaces in specified colours.You can use a slide bar to check the angle,parting edges etc..You can also rotate the UCS to different directions to varify the undercuts.

I would also recommend the face analysis (slope). I work with a lot of injection molded parts and that is what we use to check draft.

It was taken from Mold Wizard and packaged with UG, because it does exactly what you are trying to do, and is found to be extremely useful.
