Die and Mold Manufacturing Industry Package

July 08, 2016

Whether you produce high-quality molds and individual parts or complete draw dies, dies or models, the Die and Mold manufacturing industry package from Tebis provides an ideal solution for every application. The design functions provide a variety of methods from the modification of existing CAD models to reverse engineering.

Moldmakers and model manufacturers can quickly analyze and structure complex parts and prepare them for automated NC programming. Moldmakers need significantly less time for manual reworking in tryouts. Measurement functions help document the quality achieved. 

Key features include:

  • CAD functions for design
  • Comprehensive analysis functions for geometry
  • Repair and preparation functions for NC programming
  • Wide range of NC functions for 3D surface machining and for prismatic milling and drilling
  • Collision detection
  • Extensive automation possibilities including feature processing
  • Manage real machines and tools in virtual libraries
  • Manage all machining steps in a central job manager
  • Quality checking right at the machine

Related Glossary Terms

  • computer-aided design ( CAD)

    computer-aided design ( CAD)

    Product-design functions performed with the help of computers and special software.

  • gang cutting ( milling)

    gang cutting ( milling)

    Machining with several cutters mounted on a single arbor, generally for simultaneous cutting.

  • milling

    milling

    Machining operation in which metal or other material is removed by applying power to a rotating cutter. In vertical milling, the cutting tool is mounted vertically on the spindle. In horizontal milling, the cutting tool is mounted horizontally, either directly on the spindle or on an arbor. Horizontal milling is further broken down into conventional milling, where the cutter rotates opposite the direction of feed, or “up” into the workpiece; and climb milling, where the cutter rotates in the direction of feed, or “down” into the workpiece. Milling operations include plane or surface milling, endmilling, facemilling, angle milling, form milling and profiling.

  • numerical control ( NC)

    numerical control ( NC)

    Any controlled equipment that allows an operator to program its movement by entering a series of coded numbers and symbols. See CNC, computer numerical control; DNC, direct numerical control.
