Creo Parametric enables you to check moving parts for interference with the static parts for each move you define.
• Define the move to perform the interference check on.
• Specify the static part to check for interference with.
• Interferences highlighted:
– Curves
– Points

Creo Parametric enables you to check moving parts for interference with a static part for each move you define. After you have defined a move, you must select a static part to check for interference with the current part that you have defined for the move. Areas that are interfering either have their curves highlighted, as shown in Figure 1 or, if interference curves cannot be found, the resulting interference is highlighted by a red point, as shown in Figure 2. You can delete the move and try another method of opening the mold to prevent the interference of parts. You may have to redefine your mold components.
