Increase Competitiveness Through Integrated Mold & Tool Design

The pressure on mold and tool-makers is relentless. Time is always of the essence, and as cycle times reduce, further demands are made. Mold & tool production that took 4 months last year is now demanded in 3 months this year. And so it goes on. Even when a part design is delivered late, the completion target for the mold or tool often remains unchanged.
With these ever decreasing design-to-manufacturing cycle times and increasing complexity of the parts to be produced, toolmakers need to maximize the efficiency of the complete mold and tool design process. To do this toolmakers need to be able to:
- Accelerate the design of molds & tools and ensure that that can produce the most complex of parts, reliably and to the required cost and quality targets.
- Simulate, early in the design process, and compensate for the effect of deformation introduced by the manufacturing process such as material shrinkage, warping or spring-back.
- Respond quickly to change requests – whether through late changes to the design of the part to be produced, or the need to address problems found during the manufacturing process itself.
To addresses these challenges, the CATIA Mold & Tool design solution from Dassault Systèmes provides comprehensive and fully integrated capabilities specifically developed to meet the needs of mold and tool designers.
Many leading companies have gained significant competitive advantage through these capabilities, with typical benefits being:
- Improved the whole mold & tool design process time by 70%.
- Achieved time savings of 30% across the initial mold design process.
- Reduced the time taken for manufacturability analysis from DAYS to hours
- Accelerated mold core & cavity design by 70 %.
