the mold industry lays great emphasis on efficiency
the mold industry lays great emphasis on efficiency. Sometime, considering the credit therein, even when business negotiation between the manufacturing and the customers is still under way, […]
what is the BOM in a mold enterprise ?
the BOM table takes mold products as the unit, namely, mold products recorded in the same BOM table are of the same serial No, and are distinguished by material No, […]
introduction to mold material flow
Generally, when the number of staff of a mold manufacturing enterprise reaches 100, a network collaborative mold manufacturing system shall be required, wherein the management of mold materials is one of the most essential parts. […]
How to select your cutting tool for a complex mold
Moldmakers are always juggling the various complexities in a mold build. If the mold is relatively flat, the balls (tennis) are relatively easy to juggle. As the mold becomes more complex or deeper, the weight and size of the different balls changes (add a bowling ball and a ping pong ball). At the end of [...]
CAD/CAM benifits the production of electrodes
The production of electrodes is a key stage in the manufacture of many types of tooling, including injection molds, so the availability of a faster, more automated method for their development will increase efficiency and reduce leadtimes across a number of industries. Here is where CAD/CAM comes into play. […]
A suitable milling option will benefit mold making
The lead angle of your cutter has a dramatic effect on not only the chip that you generate, but also the cutting forces in both the axial and the radial directions. All of this can affect your overall productivity. There are many milling lead angle concepts on the market today and each is designed to [...]
A new cooling technology will help the injection mold
Much has been written and discussed relative to the cooling of mold cavities. Most molders and moldmakers are at least aware of the benefits of placing as much heat removal technology into a mold core or cavity as possible. Simply drilling a hole into the bottom of a core for a closure and inserting a [...]
mold parts and mold steel
mold parts without special requirements can be manufactured from carbon structure steel( such as Japan’s S45C, S50C, and S55C) or carbon tool steel(such as Japan’s SK series), […]
the service hardness of pre-hardened steel
the service hardness of pre-hardened steel is usually within the range of 30—42HRC, wherein the cutting property is not good under high hardness, […]
Pre-hardened plastic mold steel
Some plastic mold steels after being processed and molded will deform dramatically during heat treatment, whereby the precision of molds cannot be ensured. […]
