    3. Provide the Mold Base function using the Tools > Function > Provide function... command and then fill in the corresponding values in the data of the two functions (Mold Base and Tooling Base)
  3. In each part document of the plates:
    1. Provide the function that corresponds to it among the following ones : Insulate plate, Clamp plate, Ejector Base plate, Ejector Retaining Plate, Core Cavity Plate, Support Plate and then puis fill in the corresponding values of each function in the operation tree.
    2. Regarding the risers, the Rails function must be provided in the riser sub-assembly.

  4. Save and check-in the mold base assembly.

From this point, the mold Base is available in the Mold > Mold Base inclusion... command.
