Hi There,

Happy to take a look at this. Can you attach your model, and ideally speaking record a short video of your workflow? There are a lot of subtle thing in the meshers and there are a few different mesh types. If you can provide a model and a short video we might be able to narrow it down a bit quicker and help with with a work around if there is a problem.

Hi @250479

Please check below points

1) did feed system properties (like gate, runner, hot runner, channel) assigned to the curve

2) check the edge length used for meshing

3) check for license availability

4) if above all are done properly, check all the layers are turned on

still problem exists, share the file here

Thank you @mppkumar for your answer. To create the feed system i didn't assigned it to any curves, I only created beams from the Geometry panel. Is that a wrong way to create the feed system?

Hi @250479

yes, another method to create beam elements thru Geometry panel

if you have select two nodes and assign beam element property, then beam element will be created based on chosen property. to display beam elements follow as shown in below image and let me know your feedback
