Qisheng Electrical Industry Co., Ltd. is one of the largest suppliers of electrical products in Asia. Qisheng Electric is one of the top ten electrical appliance parts brands in the world. Since the introduction of Cimatron software in 2002, it has played an important role in the whole process of mold manufacturing. The following uses the E1031 single-pole single-pole switch blank panel as an example to introduce the application of Cimatron in the whole process.
I. Product model design
Cimatron E's powerful modeling capabilities support parametric sketches, blending of solids and surfaces. The parametric concept of the whole process facilitates the modification of the model, the insertion of features, and the association of the parent and child parts realizes the engineering change of the whole process. The concept of the open entity makes up for the deficiency of the pure entity and provides a very loose and powerful function for the complex model design. Design environment. Simple and guided tool menu, users don't have to worry about obstacles.
The rich and powerful data conversion interface ensures Cimatron's collaboration with mainstream design software. For example, IGES, STEP, DXF, STL, VDA, SAT, etc. are supported. The dedicated interfaces for mainstream design software are: PRO /E, CATIA, UG, SOLDWORKS, PARASOLID AUTOCAD, etc. In this way, you can undertake any type of file provided by the customer, and build a 3D model based on the original model data.
2. Rapid splitting
After the product model is designed, the next step is to design the model for the model. Cimatron E has developed a Qucik split module for the mold industry that allows the product model to be quickly separated into chambers, cores, sliders and inserts, and the results of the separation can be removed. The feasibility analysis of the mold shows the draft surface with different color differences, which is convenient for the designer to inspect and modify the product to meet the technical requirements of the mold. The system automatically generates the required parting line and provides a flexible and versatile method of building the parting surface. There are special instructions for including blank creation, mold coordinate system generation, multi-cavity layout design, and final automatic output of mold parts. The whole process has clear ideas, and the guided tool bar has planned the designer's intentions, which is convenient and quick. More importantly: Cimatron's rapid splitting does not require the model to be stitched into a fully enclosed entity beforehand, with high tolerance and high success rate, which saves the designer a lot of complicated pre-modeling work.
Three. Mold design
After the profile parting is completed, how to quickly design a complete structure, three-dimensional realistic mold structure is the direction pursued by modern enterprises. Because this method can make up for the abstraction of the mold structure expressed in 2D drawings, it can directly present the designed mold to your customers. Cimatron E's MoldDesign can complete all the corresponding work. After entering the mold design environment, the system automatically plans such as: fixed mold, dynamic mold, ejection system, slider system, etc., and then introduces the previously designed parting parts into corresponding In the mold system, the designer then only needs to select the appropriate mold type, specification, template thickness and common mold standard parts. A basic complete mold will be presented immediately, and the corresponding parts can be automatically cut. The designer can also set the design of the thimble and the cooling water channel according to actual needs, and the thimble penetrating portion can also be automatically cut. Cimatron has built-in international standard formwork such as FUTABA, HASCO, DME, etc., and users can also convert non-standard parts during the design process. Finally, 2D mold drawings and parts list can be automatically output. Cimatron E's formwork design accommodates open profile parts for greater flexibility in formwork design.
4. Rapid electrode design
In the mold manufacturing process of complex products, EDM is a powerful complement to CNC machining, so the design function of the electrode is one of the important indicators to measure the perfection of CAD/CAM software. Cimatron E's Quick Electrode is one of the quick series modules developed specifically for this purpose. Specialized process production techniques, interactive specific parameter tables, users simply fill in some key parameters or manipulate some simple commands, and a complete electrode model can be quickly generated. The system can extract the area to be discharged in a rectangular or circular manner for any solid or purely curved model, automatically generate a boundary contour, tangent to the tangent or two directions, or extend the surface in any direction. Instantly adjust the electrode center point coordinates to meet the integer position requirements, click on the position point to generate the machining coordinate system, set the EDM discharge parameters, and then automatically output the 2D electrode part and position map with dimensions. The user can also customize the electrode fabrication process template according to his own experience or habits, and automatically generate the electrode model by calling the corresponding template when appropriate, which is very efficient.
Five. NC programming
Cimatron's programming technology has a strong reputation in the industry, and its intelligent, safe and efficient innovation has maintained its leading position for more than 20 years. The machining based on the knowledge of the blank ensures a constant cutting load, safe selection of the advance and retraction, setting of the residual material area, and optimization of the feed rate. The rich high-speed milling strategy guarantees good surface quality, high precision, long tool life and high efficiency. The automated machining template retains the complete machining process information and automatically selects the machining object according to the geometry standard, so simple operation can produce the ideal tool path.
1. For electrode processing: E6 With special processing parameters, the spark gap of the electrode can be directly milled using a flat knife. Efficient generation of tool path trajectories using electrode processing templates is one of the main reasons for the popularity of Cimatron users.
2. For mold processing: Cimatron E has perfect high-speed machining strategy from roughing, secondary roughing, finishing to automatic clearing. The whole process of anti-chuck interference inspection, margin analysis and verification, optimization of output processing code, The processing precision and smoothness of the mold profile are guaranteed. High-speed machining can use a small number of tools, with the residual information of the blank to complete most of the processing tasks, which can save a lot of time-consuming electrical machining work and improve the overall production efficiency of the factory.
From the above examples, it can be seen that Cimatron E focuses on the integration of mold CAD/CAM. The corresponding Cimatron also has wire cutting, lathes, shoe molds, reverse engineering and quick quotation systems, and strives to give users a perfect solution.
Wire thread inserts are helically coiled fastening devices that provide permanent, wear-resistant screw threads that exceed the strength of most parent material; the inserts are designed to protect tapped holes against failures due to stripping, seizing, corrosion, and wear.
Threaded inserts are typically used when the object in which a threaded fastener is being installed is made of a soft material. For hard materials, a screw or bolt can be often driven into the object without the need for a threaded insert. A simple solution is to use a threaded insert.
