Customer demand analysis
The customer provides a 3D file and designs a structural arrangement (including parting surface, draft angle, and structure) based on the customer's product. The optimal position of the intersection is determined using mold flow analysis software, and assembly drawings are produced and submitted to the customer for confirmation. At the same time, suggestions are made for modifying the parts of the product design that cause inability to process or form problems.

3D modeling
Based on the customer's feedback, start 3D modeling (pay attention to carefully reading the customer's task book to understand the shrinkage of the product, the specifications of standard parts, the form of glue injection, etc.).

Procurement and processing
Purchase steel materials and standard parts. Order mold bases (some companies may make their own mold bases). Produce 2D drawings and deliver assembly drawings for on-site processing. It is necessary for the design to track the on-site processing in a timely manner and solve any problems encountered during the processing (no design can successfully design a set of molds at once, and design optimization will be carried out to ensure the rationality of the processing process. Of course, the design of Niu B can minimize problems).

Trial and modification of molds
Trial mold design involves adjusting and re optimizing the mold based on the results of the trial mold. Design changes should be made according to the customer's design requirements.

Compilation and archiving of drawings and files
The organization and archiving of drawings, a clever design will organize and save some good structures as their own.

Career Development Suggestions
In fact, mold design is not as good as others imagine, it is very tiring and stressful (especially in small companies). Salaries are actually not high, and investing the same wisdom and labor in other industries may earn more money. In order to have better development, it is most necessary to work as a fitter or CNC, EDM, WC for a period of time to understand the processing technology. Share first likes and comments
