New capabilities added to this release are based on your feedback, with the goal of enabling you to achieve your workflow goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this episode, we&#8217;re continuing to focus on new tooling capabilities, with a focus on NX Mold Wizard.

You can produce a fully customizable mold cost report, and rapidly generate a fully-featured mold design.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-background is-style-dots\" style=\"background-color:#00e6e6;color:#00e6e6\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use Initialize Project command to begin mold design<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step in the workflow enables us to start the mold design process, and can be done by using the <strong>Initialize Project <\/strong>command. The command can used to specifically create new mold design projects from bodies and curves. Furthermore, you can add additional products to existing projects to create a family mold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> When the command is selected, you will be prompted to select the regions to be included. You can select the file, path and name, and the material that is used. With the material selected, shrinkage values are automatically determined. It is important to remember that these values can be manually set too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/Initialize-Project-Command-1-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8581\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/Initialize-Project-Command-1-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/Initialize-Project-Command-1-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/Initialize-Project-Command-1-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/Initialize-Project-Command-1-1536x863.png 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/Initialize-Project-Command-1-2048x1151.png 2048w, https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/Initialize-Project-Command-1-395x222.png 395w, https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/Initialize-Project-Command-1-900x506.png 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Tweak your configuration settings until you&#8217;re happy with your choices<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-background is-style-dots\" style=\"background-color:#00e6e6;color:#00e6e6\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can your parts be manufactured by traditional mold processes?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, it&#8217;s important to determine whether your mold can be manufactured through traditional mold processes.
