All,
I am a new user to Moldflow and have been having some trouble with mid plane meshing. In my latest part, a simple plate with two fins, I wanted to employ a mid plane mesh because the part seemed simple enough. However, when I attempt to mesh the part, I get the following error message:
** Error 1900303 ** Nothing visible to mesh.
Entities to be meshed should be on visible layers, and properties should be consistent with mesh aim.
For Dual Domain and 3D Tetra meshes, I simply import the model and the Moldflow mesher takes care of the rest. I then fix any problems or refine as needed, but I can't even get that far with Mid Plane. Can someone please take a look at the following Inventor model and let me know what I am doing wrong? Any help is great appreciated and I thank you in advance for any suggestions. Hope all is well and have a most blessed day!
Peace,
Pete
Hi,
if you try to mesh the imported CAD body to Midplane mesh directly you get.
** Error 1900303 ** Nothing visible to mesh.
Entities to be meshed should be on visible layers, and properties should be consistent with mesh aim.
1) First, mesh the geometry as Dual Domain mesh type.
2) Change mesh type to Midplane for study.
3) In Generate Mesh dialog, tick "Remeshed already meshed parts of the model" and then click Mesh Now.
This produces an Midplane mesh.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Berndt
