Question:

Can I split an implicit body along a plane?

Answer:

Yes, to do this:
  • Add a Plane from Normal or a Plane block
    • You can also use a CAD Face, convert it into an Implicit Body (with no thickness) and use that to cut your Implicit Body.
  • Add a Boolean Subtract block
    • Set the Primary Body to your Implicit Body
    • Set the Secondary Body to the Plane
To change which side is cut off, flip the direction of the Plane.
