How to EDM Large Surfaces Through Diesinking

Gisbert Ledvon If you build a multi-cavity with a large surface area in each cavity, consistency in surface finish and surface integrity is a must. Otherwise, you will get surface finish differences on the molded parts and may have difficulties ejecting the parts from the cavity. However, large surfaces that are EDM’ed via diesinking often

Why Simulation Matters in Mold Design

Digital prototyping gives designers and engineers the ability to virtually explore a complete product before it is built;so they can design, visualize and simulate products from the conceptual design phase through the manufacturing process. By using a digital prototype, users access real-world performance of a design with less reliance on costly physical prototypes. While simulation
