Use Self-cleaning technology in your mold
Molds have to be cleaned. There’s no way to avoid it. But what if the mold could clean itself, eliminating the negative impact of manual maintenance on productivity? […]
How to understand the differences between steel and aluminum
The high-strength aluminum alloys available today are feasible alternatives to steel for tooling. Originally used primarily for the production of prototypes because of its lower cost, aluminum offers several other advantages that make it a viable option for production molds. […]
How to select the appropriate aluminum alloy for your mold project
If you opt to use aluminum for your next mold project, it’s important to select the appropriate aluminum alloy. Alloys are created when elements including copper, magnesium and zinc are added to the base aluminum. Each added element contributes individual beneficial properties that will improve the aluminum. […]
How to select welding wires for aluminum alloys
Different aluminum alloys require differing welding wires in order for successful welding to be achieved. Characteristics of the wire should match those of the specific alloy on which it will be welded, and the wire’s color-matching ability, strength and effect on HAZ should also be considered. Additionally, the welding wire must have a melting temperature [...]
Introduce Repair Techniques in mold alloy welding
Once the proper wire has been selected, focus must shift to the proper technique for mold alloy to be welded. This is the largest contributor to a successful weld repair. A proper technique involves more than the actual welding; it must also take into account ambient conditions and preheating of the material, which will remove [...]

CAE technology ensure that your mold design is correct
In today’s mold design process, CAE technology is more and more important, before that, Our designers cannot ensure that their design is completely correct, Process simulation is the core of CAE technology. […]
The concept of integrated CAD/CAM has been changed a lot
The concept of integrated CAD/CAM have been popular for decades in mold industry, but now, it has been changed a lot and reached an entirely new level of value, what happened? […]
How to start a Mold Design Review process
Now we have understood the importance of mold design review, do you know how to start? Generally, The mold designer then uses the information gathered for him from the previous steps to generate a mold design and submit a tool assembly drawing to the mold buyer for approval. The next step is mold design review, [...]
Mold design review is very important
When our mold designer complete a mold design, what is the next step? Do you have a mold design review process? […]
