Description
Stamping die is a special process equipment used in cold stamping processing to process materials (metal or non-metal) into parts (or semi-finished products), called cold stamping die (commonly known as cold stamping die). Stamping is a pressure processing method that uses a mold installed on a press machine to apply pressure to materials at room temperature, causing them to separate or undergo plastic deformation, in order to obtain the desired parts.
Mold CAD/CAM Technology
The rapid development and organic integration of computer technology, mechanical design, and manufacturing technology have formed a new type of technology called computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM).
CAD/CAM is a key technology for transforming traditional mold production methods. It is a high-tech and high-efficiency system engineering that provides users with an effective auxiliary tool in the form of computer software, enabling engineering and technical personnel to use computers to design and optimize products, mold structures, forming processes, CNC machining, and costs. It has become a consensus that mold CAD/CAM can significantly shorten the mold design and manufacturing cycle, reduce production costs, and improve product quality.
With the emergence of powerful professional software and efficient integrated manufacturing equipment, mold CAD/CAM technology based on 3D modeling and parallel engineering (CE) is becoming a development direction. It can achieve design oriented towards manufacturing and assembly, simulate the forming process and CNC machining process, and integrate design and manufacturing.
In order to meet the needs of multi variety and small batch production in industrial production, accelerate the manufacturing speed of molds, reduce mold production costs, the development and application of rapid economic mold making technology are increasingly valued. The rapid economic mold making technology mainly includes low melting point alloy mold making technology, zinc based alloy mold making technology, epoxy resin mold making technology, spray forming mold making technology, laminated steel plate mold making technology, etc. The application of rapid and economical mold making technology in mold manufacturing can simplify the mold manufacturing process, shorten the manufacturing cycle (70% to 90% shorter than ordinary steel mold manufacturing), and reduce mold production costs (60% to 80% lower than ordinary steel mold manufacturing costs), achieving significant economic benefits in industrial production. It plays a very important role in improving the development speed of new products and promoting the development of production.
