Hi experts,

I do injection molding with the material is ABS PC.

When I create tet4 mesh, I can run the simulation.

But When I create tet1 straight edge, The error is: Material is not suitable for filling.

    i'm not sure 2nd order tetras are even supported by the injection molding solver.

     

    Can I ask why are you trying 2nd order mesh in here?

    Did you have any issues with Tet4?

     

    In my understanding maybe having a finer Tet4 mesh would give you better results, and more layers during your simulation.
