I've recently taken a position with a Blowmolding production plant as a tooling designer. I'm coming from a SolidWorks environment to Creo 3.0. I'm being tasked with finding the best method of using customer provided Creo files (solids) to generate preliminary blow mold surfaces for use in a seperate simulation package. I think I've found a way of converting the solid files to surfaces, eliminating all of the surfaces I don't need and saving as a .stp file, but I'd like to know if Creo has a function or tool I could use to "split" the remaining geometry along a mold line. Does anyone have any tips or experience with this, or even another community post that could shed some light?
I appreciate any advice offered and thank you in advance.
