What are the advantages of using steel rule die-making equipment?

1. The parts produced by steel rule die-making equipment have high matching accuracy, long dimension chain, and high assembly accuracy, so the matching method after assembly is mostly used to ensure the machining accuracy.

2. The part material is good.

3. Some parts such as punch die, and other quenching hardware needs special machining methods such as EDM.

4. The steel rule die-making equipment core and cavity are mostly complex curves or even three-dimensional curved surfaces, which require mold manufacturing equipment for NC processing and molding, such as plastic toy molds.

5. Generally, the grinding and polishing of forming surface and mold assembly can only be carried out manually, and the manual working hours can reach about 50% of the total working hours.

6. The production cycle of steel rule die-making equipment is short, and the delivery time is generally required to be about one week or three days.

7. There are standard parts for the frame blank of general steel rule die-making equipment, which has been serialized. Compared with other machines, the amount of mechanical cutting is small.

What is the process of making steel rule die?

1. After receiving the order and relevant requirements such as mold drawings, the internal department shall make a corresponding evaluation, including the evaluation of design feasibility, process, and equipment. For example, whether the product shape and tolerance requirements can meet the customer's requirements (it may be necessary to negotiate with the customer), whether the existing internal process can be met, whether a new process needs to be developed and whether relevant machines and auxiliary equipment need to be purchased.

2. After determining the development requirements and process route, start the die board making machine design, and then design review.

3. Materials shall be prepared according to the design drawings before processing. Of course, you can also prepare materials in advance, including coarse materials and fine materials (don't ask me what coarse materials and fine materials are). There is also a piece of auxiliary materials and accessories, such as screws, guide posts, springs, etc., which need to be prepared according to the design.

4. Then rough machining, then heat treatment may be required (specific problems are treated), and finally finishing and polishing.

5. Assemble all standard parts and non-standard parts after processing and outsourcing the die board making machine.

6. Finally, the test model is verified.

What are the developments of modern mold-making machines?

The CAD/CAM technology of the modern mold-making machines, the laser rapid prototyping technology of the mold, the precision forming technology of the mold, the ultra-precision processing technology of the mold, the finite element method, and the boundary element method are used for the dynamic simulation of the flow, cooling and heat transfer process in the modern mold-making machines design. Technology, which includes mold CIMS technology, mold DNM technology, and numerical control technology that has been developed, covering almost all modern manufacturing technologies.

Steel rule mold manufacturing equipment has long become an indispensable part of the modern industrial production process. Shenzhen Test Laser Equipment Co., Ltd. commits to provide perfect modern mold-making machines for every customer from all countries.
