According to the TIR made by testing workers and the TVR by quality inspection department, the MPI (Manufacture Processing Instruction) can thereby be formulated, wherein the following aspects are included: […]
Due to the fierce market competition, Mould manufacturing cycle is getting shorter and shorter, and the Mold quality requirement is getting higher and higher, At this time, high speed machining technology is the key for mold makers […]
In the specialized world of mold and insert manufacturing, there are several benefits to employing five-axis machining. For example, five-axis machining adds two more axes of rotation that allows the cutter head to move into positions not accessible with a standard three-axis CNC machine. […]
In moldmaking, manufacturers are constantly searching for ways to increase productivity by cutting production time and costs. Today, a hybrid process exists that allows additive machining and milling in the same setup to address those two challenges. […]
A look at non-destructive cleaning processes for complex molds that require the removal of tenacious surface contamination to ensure surface quality and longevity of precision mold and molded part surfaces. […]
In a well-established industry like moldmaking, the idea of innovation is a bit like the weather – everyone talks about it, but no one seems to be able to do anything about it. Steven , President and CEO of First-rate mold solution co, ltd., is an exception to that rule. […]
1. When purchasing tooling in China it is imperative that the buyer specify American Inch, DIN Metric or JIS Metric for components. The Chinese have their own Metric system and the parts are not available outside of China. […]
In the early days of the CAD/CAM industry, customers were supplied a completely-integrated system for design and manufacture from a single developer. More recently, stand-alone design systems have become popular. […]
As a result of the spray-forming process, the steel itself shows some excellent properties. For one, it contains very hard primary carbides, which together with the nitrogen from the spray process increase the wear resistance of the steel. […]
The benefits for mold manufacturers who use digital manufacturing are plenty, but to name a few: uninterrupted production, the ability to validate geometry prior to incurring costs from wasted materials, the capability to recreate geometries of end of life products if the inventory is eliminated; and, of course, the reduction in cost over machining to [...]
