- Designing a mold

This page is the process for Designing my 3D mold model, in week 12 Molding and Casting.

1. The Result

  • I made feet (Prototype) for my final project.
  • This is my 3D complete mold model. The model size 92(W)x76(D)x39(H) mm, half of size of material. alt text

2. How I designed

  • To make the design of the mold I use Fusion360.
  • I learned that design a mold need Vertical walls need slightly angled. And right-angled corners should be filleted, to consider pull out Silicone mold easily.
