Design and development are the cornerstones of company activity
as they shape the subsequent technological, financial and feasibility
solutions, in accordance with workshop requirements and potential,
so that the project is managed rationally and accurately in order
to achieve a first-class finished product.
 |
Drawings
Customers send us their design requirements on paper
or file drawings (in IGS, DXF or DWG
formats). These requirements are processed and analysed with
software such as THINKDESIGN so that the moving and
closing parts can be studied thoroughly.
|
Two-dimensional design
The customer's requirements, plus the material, length and
mould production specifications, are then compiled in a two-dimensional
drawing.
|
|
 |
Three-dimensional design
Once the two-dimensional study is underway, a three-dimensional
process is launched in order to expose any problems that
may arise during mould construction.
In this phase, special attention is paid to the design of
the electrodes, which are used to process the critical
points of the male and bottom dies
|
CAM processing
The 3D-design is followed by a CAM processing phase,
which uses AUTON software to design the mould-holder
and moulding parts, and generate the tool routes automatically.
A CAM simulator can be used to check these designs
and the result of the processing can be tested on screen.
|
|
Production
After the design has been thoroughly reviewed, the drawings, files
and tool routes are sent to the workshop where the mould
is put into production.
Delivery
Once the mould has been finished, a booklet is created so
that the customer has all the information required to operate
and maintain the mould.
