Cooling Time and Air Traps of a Part with Two Configurations<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

You might have realized your initial part is not ideal for molding. Air might get trapped or it could take too long to fill up or cool down.\u00a0If you wish to modify\u00a0your original part, you could create a new configuration.
