Mold manufacturing requires extremely high precision in assembly, with the dimensional accuracy of precision molds often reaching micrometer (μm) levels. Certain products, such as automotive parts and aircraft components, have complex surfaces with multiple curves, requiring high precision, durability, and efficiency. HIWIN provides high-precision motion control solutions to improve the accuracy, stability, and production efficiency of mold processing.
High-Precision Motion Control
HIWIN’s linear guideways and ballscrews feature low backlash and smooth motion, ensuring high precision in mold processing. The challenge of machining large molds, due to their significant size and weight, is a common issue faced by many manufacturing companies. HIWIN’s Heavy Load Series ballscrews offer exceptional load capacity and long-term stable operation, making them ideal for heavy-duty mold manufacturing, ensuring machining stability even under demanding conditions. These advanced motion components guarantee the accuracy and reliability required for producing high-quality molds.
Optimizing CNC Machining Performance
CNC machining is the most critical process in mold manufacturing, requiring high-speed and high-precision motion. The process encompasses various stages, including milling, reaming, drilling, boring, and threading, with precise control necessary throughout each phase. HIWIN Torque Motor Rotary Tables, offering high positioning accuracy (±5 arc-sec), significantly enhance the flexibility and accuracy of mold processing. Given the size and weight constraints of molds, traditional manufacturing process can be time-consuming. HIWIN Torque Motor Rotary Tables allow continuous precision machining from multiple angles and positions, eliminating backlash during rotation and enabling efficient one-time clamping, with a load capacity of up to 1,200 kg. This results in improved production efficiency, minimizing downtime for retooling or adjustments. HIWIN Torque Motor Rotary Tables are ideally suited for demanding tasks such as mold polishing and precision cutting, providing exceptional support for high-precision, heavy-load applications in advanced manufacturing.
Automation to Enhance Production Efficiency
Large molds often require significant manual labor. HIWIN’s automation systems assist with mold polishing, inspection, and material handling, reducing manual intervention and improving overall production consistency. By integrating HIWIN’s robotics technology with high-precision motion control, manufacturers can achieve significant improvements in operational efficiency, with repeatability of ±0.02 mm and a cycle time of 0.5 sec. The combination of 6-Axis Robots and motion components ensures streamlined processes, reduces human error, and enhances throughput, all while maintaining high-quality standards.
