Injection molders and blow molders can benefit from high conductivity alloys by achieving faster cycle times and better part quality. There are certain properties of the mold material and polymer that enable these efficiencies to be realized. […]
Data translation between CAD and CAM software applications is very high on the list of problems for buyers. The standard format IGES and the popular VDA in Europe are often flavored by software developers to fit their database structures. […]
Software has become a fact of life in china manufacturing. CAD/CAM requirements differ among companies, so it’s not surprising that many find it necessary to customize their systems to meet their particular needs. […]
In the early 1980s, leading mold base manufacturing companies challenged the specialty steel suppliers to develop an improved pre-hardened stainless holder steel for use in mold base tooling. […]
The new alloy uniquely fills the demands that many moldmakers have that are not being addressed today in our marketplace. First, this grade provides good polishability without having to be remelted. […]
A new approach involving integrating flow simulation software with CAD/CAM software will be discussed in this article. We will show how CAD/CAM/CAE integration reduces the time and effort in running a flow simulation . […]
The power of CAD has not been fully utilized by most companies, which is associated with the skill and experience level of the CAD operators. As the average operator’s skill and experience levels increase, companies will be able to increase the benefits they receive from CAD. […]
“There’s more than one way to skin a cat” applies to more than just the exfoliation of felines; it’s also applicable to mold repairs. Although the goal is always to make an effective repair, often there is more than one way to accomplish it. […]
Following are a few of the applications for which high conductivity copper alloys are a good material choice to consider: […]
