INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, STORAGE MEDIUM, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, DESIGNING METHOD OF MOLD, MANUFACTURING METHOD OF MOLD, AND MANUFACTURING METHOD OF MOLDED PRODUCT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18503522 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, STORAGE MEDIUM, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, DESIGNING METHOD OF MOLD, MANUFACTURING METHOD OF MOLD, AND MANUFACTURING METHOD OF MOLDED PRODUCT
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an information processing method for designing a mold for molding a molded product, involving receiving data on the three-dimensional shape of the molded product and a non-molded product area enclosing the molded product. The method includes extracting a three-dimensional space from the non-molded product area that becomes an undercut portion when the first and second molds are opened.
- Three-dimensional shape data of molded product and non-molded product area received
- Undercut portion space extracted from non-molded product area
- First and second molds forming the molded product are opened
Potential Applications
The technology described in the patent application could be applied in various industries such as manufacturing, automotive, aerospace, and consumer goods for designing molds with complex shapes and undercut portions.
Problems Solved
