Mold Design and Mold Engineering
Manufacturability Design and Engineering (DFM) – A team of custom molds and design engineers can work with your team to provide first-class component design support. […]
Mold Industry will enter Industry 4.0
Industry 4.0 has been getting a lot of attention from molders as they look to take advantage of connecting processing information with production information to efficiently produce quality parts on time. […]
Tips for Hard Milling
Hard millingrequires the utmost attention to detail to achieve maximum performance and tool life and tight tolerances down to 0.0001 inch. These tips help machinists get the most from hard milling. […]
Mold designer must check the wall thickness of the product
Consider the wall thickness. Some factories will tell you that they can only produce injection mold parts with consistent wall thickness. While this can make manufacturing parts easier, it is not part of the overall process. […]
How to start mold design
Don’t forget the necessity of this process. Quickly review the injection molding process: the two parts of a mold are hollow with negative images of your parts. […]
Motion simulation is very important for mold design
Designing moving objects in a static CAD environment is a challenge that mold designers have faced for many years. Currently, […]
Mold Design Standardization
Standardization is good for improving the quality of work, reducing delivery time and costs. Create a rich model library and related components that can be easily reused in new tools, which simplifies the design process and greatly reduces error space. […]
Mold Concurrent Engineering
Concurrent engineering can significantly reduce mold design time while completing multiple design tasks. For example, one designer may work on the cavity side while the other works on the core side, […]
How to price a mold
Pricing is a critical step in the mold building process that does not get the attention that it deserves. Shops use several methods, and some are more effective than others. […]
Mold-cleaning strategies are important for molds
Mold-cleaning strategies, like the molds themselves, take many forms and the array of options is wide. Suppliers understand that customers want efficient and effective methods that will not affect surface treatments adversely or damage the critical-to-function areas of molds. […]
