Choose correct CAM software package, can invest in what software itself reclaims inside the time that does not arrive one year, it produced mixed pattern accurately to make contribution for die manufacturer. Dynamic Tool&Design company is one is offerred all-around the die manufacturer of the service, its service limits includes: Design of auxiliary products plan, indoor mould and analysis of mould flow path. The product of major client is the cap of the sealed bottle that closes quickly, consumable. This company produces about 85 new-style patterns every year, offer more mould duplicate and overhaul mould product. To improve process designing productivity, shorten treatment cycle and prevent fabricating operation, dynamic pattern company is exploring effective method, they found the Delcam company that provides CAM software 2006, this is a world-famous CAM software develop business. Graph 1 much model mould of antrum cap production is assembling in the view according to Mr Meissner: "We think the opportunity is already mature, it is better to decide to search, the software that more convenient study. Then, we visited Programming Plus company, this is Delcam company turns in a of place sell business. " the PowerMill software that Programming Plus company recommended Delcam company development to be used at high speed to machine to us, with the PowerSHAPE software that makes at the mould and the Electrode software that are used at figuration of black lead electrode, the modular antrum that Dynamic company hopes to use these software at them form cutting. Dynamic company likes PowerMILL software very much, cutting of the strategy of 5 axes treatment that because this software included a series of applying to,rough machining and finish machining produce, 3 axes is machined and variable outside precision work, can calculate quickly time, increase a point distributing and easily data management. The limits of strategy of 5 axes rough machining includes rough machining, from the treatment that one is nodded or chooses to, its direction passes linear or curve, use a datum plane to undertake process designing. When processing a lot of cell, the tone trial assembly that uses 5 axes rough machining to be able to reduce work place to need blocks a time. And can offer the cutting point of view with taller efficiency of a cutting for cutting tool, rise to take the material cutting amount of the knife every time thereby. In rough machining process, use the cutting tool method of screw type, the frequency that can make light locomotive trip takes a knife decreases lowest, can shorten thereby the integral handling time of mould component. In addition, the negative charge that brings to bear on to go up at cutting tool is more even and uniform, can reduce the wear away and reduces cutting tool damage odds of cutting tool thereby. Still strategy of cutting of another rough machining can make Dynamic company comprehensive use cutting tool can the design superiority of flank cutting, because this can deepen the cutting deepness of cutting tool. This kind of rough machining is called ' game line ' treatment, when cutting tool method from advocate when appearance moves further, rough machining walks along a knife to wipe calm surface with advance gradually means. The method that its produce can make directional mutation is changed fall lowest, raise treatment rate thereby, reduce cutting tool to wear away, reduce machine tool stress. To all rough machining strategy, powerMILL software can range cutting tool way by order, because this idle stroke goes,the frequency of the knife can be reduced further. This also can make the sort of method of cutting tool of the others rough machining more active. This process designing to Dynamic company is a very big advantage for personnel. The cutting tool method of the others can be excised in the round by the metallic stuff of bequeath of place of bigger before cutting tool, the area that leaves needs lesser cutting tool to undertake fabricating only can, reduced milling handling time substantially thereby. Mr Meissner says: "The treatment of the others but managing and many time. Light is this one makes our modular antrum machines periodic and relaxed managing 25%~50% , reduced rough machining time, accordingly we can transfer the finish machining operation to the mould immediately. Use the PowerMILL software of Delcam company, cutting tool is in the condition that cutting machines from beginning to end, excise the data that does not need, cutting tool does not have the phenomenon of idle stroke cutting. Use the software of Delcam company, can undertake on rolled steel cutting is machined all the time. " the staff member that its direct with contact the characteristic can allow Dynamic company runs cutting tool follow one's inclinationsly by need, when cutting hardness is the rolled steel of 65RC, this are very important. This is meant, they can prevent cutting tool collision, avoid cutting tool to rupture, help machine tool carries effective manufacturing efficiency. Graph Mr 2Dennis Hoffmann also was the process designing personnel of Dynamic company to offer finish machining strategy in software of PowerMILL of finish machining of Delcam company process designing, include parameter to slant among them treatment of buy treatment, 3 axes cutting and treatment of alternant and invariable Z are politic. Slant in parameter in buy treatment, alterable width apparently measure of used cutting tool method keeps constant and changeless. It is those who replace certain part to stop to mix start, the span between cutting tool method is in change inside the limit of set beforehand. This kind of method is helpful for achieving better exterior quality, prevent occurrence direction mutation, bring about in apparently leave impress. In each mould that Dynamic company machines, must avoid the happening of this kind of circumstance completely. The side that Nextpage3 axis cutting is machined even if uses cutting tool faces the perpendicular cliff face of workpiece to have precision work, the result that the exterior quality that its machine wants to compare the mural face that goes up to be machined with cutting of seriation mode of operation in level of different Z axis is more good. After the PowerMILL software that uses Delcam firm established a few process, process designing personnel discovered its advantage immediately. Say according to the staff member place of Mr Meissner: "This kind of software makes the job becomes interesting almost rise. Boys use this kind of software to work very successfully, the product quality of treatment is very good. " the process designing personnel of Dynamic company still complements: "As an example, we join together through software of interface general Visual Basic and PowerMILL software, a lot of treatment craft that can make we are used daily thereby implement automation. This that is to say, when we are using 10 cutting tool, need to use these cutting tool entirely in the course that builds a pattern, right now, this software can use the same strategy that we had used on congener spare parts, establish the cutting tool way that place of proper treatment spare parts wants automatically. " company of Dynamic of Delcam company help maintains the consistency in process of its process designing, this is spent to the satisfaction of craft time and client have mix directly openly influence. Mr Meissner explanation says: "We developed manufacturing technology, among them each engineer is using same technology, same cutting tool, the job that pursues because of this boys does not have any change. In the mould production that orders goods from a batch another batch orders goods, we make sure the mould produces the consistency of quality from beginning to end, our client can be accomplished as much. In the day in the past, the likelihood still needs to use the means that a few handiwork assemble, but also do not need again later such. " " the icon that Delcam company uses and cutting tool method represent a means very figure, they can help us recall different strategy. Still have a tool very useful also to process designing personnel, this founds the tool of example namely, on the foundation that can let us be configured in similar spare parts, handle way of many cutting tool easily, do not need to be participated in artificially, already time of can managing process designing, can assure the consistency of quality again. " when process designing personnel wants to edit cutting tool method, can finish the job immediately. They can be collected in taking cutting tool route any a paragraph, cancel it, but the cutting tool way that still can retain the rest apple-piely. Mr Meissner says: "To us, this is really can the software of managing and many time. If use other software, when we want to make certain change to the program, must want to recombine everything, although have two processor, but should finish this job to still need to cost 5~10min, particular case depends on the size of the file. This will immediate impact is opposite to us the client's service. " compositive software of complete set CAM is in process designing branch, if from the PowerSHAPE software that date from of PowerMILL software upstream is Delcam company. Dynamic company can use PowerSHAPE software to analyse damage, duplicate or missing exterior substance model, examine banking angle, process designing member can use it to show hard the area of mould pressing figuration, be like the Bao Bi of the spare parts, reinforcement and undercut area. They also can be maintained, change and revise the surface or hypostatic model, and above add grain, mark and mixed anaglyph pattern. PowerSHAPE software still was offerred other the method that can choose for process designing personnel, from a group of line, radian or each dot compose build a surface, in order to achieve a best design result. If use software of finishing of Smart Surfacing intelligence, it can choose a kind of method to come automatically compose builds best surface. If process designing personnel wants to watch other can offer chosen way, he can pass the means of scroll picture to choose to replace a solution. When data is added in blueprint, with respect to the option that can replace software automatically. Dynamic company still can use the Electrode software of Delcam company, complete confluence is in this kind of software in PowerSHAPE software and PowerMILL software. Perhaps this is current the most sophisticated electrode software, use Electrode software to be able to build hypostatic electrode model automatically, and the cutting tool way that makes EDM treatment can be chosen. In a few minutes in, with respect to the model that can show a complex modular antrum automatically, the model of 3D electrode substance that forms examination of collision of a classics, still include chart of clamping apparatus, setting and cutting tool method. Graph the V33 machine tool of 3 herd tough firm is opposite model core undertakes strong voice cutting is machined, the software that the robot that its use uses Delcam firm is automatic the equipment Dynamic company with newest process designing is one of die manufacturer that the United States uses newest EDM the first batch to machine equipment, machine tool of EDM of movable type of this kind of line deserves to cutting tool of CNC numerical control exchanges system and automatic tap ability, can undertake nobody turn moving operation. This company still is continueing to invest this processing technique, so that be in the market with very vigorous demand, hold its competition position. In the job shops that busy in this and has 55 workers, have facilities of the following treatment: 2 are assembled and unassemble by the robot machining center of machining center of vertical of the V33 of company of a machining center of 4 the machinery of cut of Bostomatic carbon steel of workpiece, OKK vertical, Mu Ye VMC and high speed of a Mikron UCP710 5 axes. Mr Meissner explanation says: "Treatment of cutting of high speed strong voice makes us OK be mixed in the treatment on heat treatment rolled steel core model antrum, still can maintain very tall tolerancepublic errand precision at the same time. " fall in a lot of circumstances, use strong voice cutting to machine craft to be able to absolve many polish work, shorten delivery time. For 5 axes machining center weaves the process is not difficult. Mr Meissner explanation says: "It is 5 axes with PowerMILL software (it is 2+3 axis actually) machining center process designing is very simple, this job by among them personnel of a primary process designing can be assumed. The staff member of Dynamic company plans to increase their use frequency, begin to undertake more grooming. " the high speed that company of a Mu Ye installed again inside the workshop is new-style machine tool of carbolic steel cutting, this conduces to a company machining a machine tool quickly to produce black lead electrode for EDM mould, its machine precision to rise 0.

0002in, exceeded that original machine tool. This is the another prominent dominant position of Dyamnic company. Mr Meissner says: "One of our closest innovation technologies are the robot was used in manufacturing technology. Robot system everyday 24h runs, work 7 days every week, use nobody completely to turn an operation. Accordingly, although the lamplight of the workshop is shut entirely, manufacturing work is OK still proceed, include process designing even. " after using Visual Basic software, the company can undertake do not have illume process designing. Mr Randy points out: "We were machining a respect to had gained huge success without illume, we also are interested in do not have illume process designing extremely. " the facility of complete set complement that Dynamic company is running to serve as mould of EDM of numerical control of CNC of company of 3 water chestnut to machine a machine tool, this equipment deserves to cutting tool exchanges a system, but nobody change 24h moving operation. These machine tools and robot system join, because this electrode is mixed,workpiece can change automatically. The investment of Dynamic company expenses on Delcam software calls in entirely inside the time that does not arrive one year, this should be attributed to from inside machining cycle and process designing time against time result. Be in Dynamic company, everything is for buy time, to the client punctual refer high grade mould. Go up from theory for, its delivery time is to press minute of calculative. Anyhow, delcam company was Dynamic company to gain this outstanding advantage in global competition. CNC Milling CNC Machining
