Digitalization of die-casting molds is a new way for the mold industry
The status quo of China's mold industry development is what everyone can see. With the improvement of technology and the implementation of various innovative methods in the industry, China's mold industry has gradually embarked on a new height. However, there are problems in the branches of the industry. Die-casting mold products are more obvious. There are obvious differences between foreign market and domestic market demand. Good sales in China do not necessarily mean that they can be sold well abroad. However, if domestic die-casting mold products have a place in the international market, they must break through the following three aspects:
First, the backwardness of technology has greatly hindered the development of China's die-casting mold industry.
Second, China's die-casting mold industry still has many shortcomings in the use of raw materials.
Third, the supporting system of China's die-casting mold industry is still insufficient. Domestic die-casting molds can only win the competition in foreign markets by increasing research and development efforts, adjusting development methods, and solving the above three problems.
Sand casting is the most widely used in the casting process. According to statistics, about 80% of the world's die-casting parts are sand-cast by wood molds. At present, there are more than 30,000 foundry enterprises in China. In 2011, the annual output of die-casting parts in China exceeded 40 million tons, consuming a lot of wood and metal.
Therefore, the newly developed digital moldless casting precision forming technology and equipment, directly from the sand processing. The staff can complete the work in just two steps.
First, a three-dimensional CAD model of the desired die casting is made using a computer.
Secondly, the automatic planning path is input to the moldless casting precision forming machine, and other work can be done by the machine.
It is understood that the use of this die casting technology can reduce manufacturing costs by 30% -50%, while reducing development time by 50% -80%. Therefore, the digital development of domestic die-casting molds will surely enter the international market.
Digitalization is an important part of the future development of an industry, because such high-tech is the most important industry development.
