• MAPAL offers complete machining solutions for the die and mould industry.

Primi passi nel settore della costruzione di stampi e matrici

L’aspettativa dei costruttori di stampi e matrici è un alto livello di competenza di processo e di prodotto da parte del loro produttore di utensili da taglio. Questo perché la vita utile degli stampi da produrre e la precisione dei pezzi stampati sono enormemente importanti al fine della competitività nella produzione di massa. Gli utensili devono quindi garantire massima precisione, lunga durabilità e, soprattutto, sicurezza dei processi.
 

Questi sono gli aspetti che hanno determinato il successo di MAPAL in settori come l'industria automobilistica, l'ingegneria meccanica o l'industria aerospaziale. È quindi logico che il produttore di utensili di precisione offra anche soluzioni efficienti ed economiche per l'intero processo di lavorazione nella costruzione di stampi e matrici. Utensili ad alte prestazioni versatili e precisi, nonché portautensili specifici con contorni sottili e concentricità precisa minimizzano il lavoro di lucidatura e rilavorazione, assicurando una qualità di superficie costante durante il processo di fresatura. Essi consentono inoltre notevoli risparmi sui costi dell’intero processo.

コンポーネントおよび材料


From the unmachined to the finished part

Find the right tool with just a few clicks: Depending on the machining, the specific operation and the tool requirement, you can quickly find the tool you want.
  • On a rendered example component, an operation is highlighted.
    1 / 8

    2D surfaces

    On the one hand, this category includes machining processes carried out directly on the machine, such as face milling, milling of pockets and straight walls. On the other hand, it also includes operations for complex geometries that are programmed using CAM software.

  • On a rendered example component, an operation is highlighted.
    2 / 8

    3D surfaces

    In the die & mould sector, the manufacture of increasingly complex forms is part of everyday life. Continuous further developments in machine tools and CAM software raise performance and productivity to an ever higher level. The tools used must therefore always be state-of-the-art. To achieve optimum results, each design starts with a process analysis.

    Go to the product range for machining 3D surfaces
  • On a rendered example component, an operation is highlighted.
    3 / 8

    Open pockets

    Mould inserts also have machining tasks that are required for casting or various attachment parts. Users are increasingly machining open pockets (circumferential machining) using trochoidal milling. This machining method helps to optimise machining times and to extend tool life.

    Go to the product range for machining open pockets
  • On a rendered example component, an operation is highlighted.
    4 / 8

    Closed pockets

    Closed pockets are usually produced by roughing in Z planes. When milling, a ramp is often selected as the machining entry. The tool selected depends on the depth of the walls and the mould incline to be generated on the component. MAPAL’s broad portfolio with modular systems also covers the machining of deep pockets with large diameters.

    Go to the product range for machining closed pockets
  • On a rendered example component, an operation is highlighted.
    5 / 8

    Helix milling

    A major focus in milling operations is on reducing the machining time. With specific tool geometries for machining closed, round pockets, it is often possible to eliminate the pre-drilling process. With helix milling, milling paths are programmed with helical entrances that are suitable for pocket dimensions.

    Go to the helix milling product range
  • On a rendered example component, an operation is highlighted.
    6 / 8

    Even surfaces

    Operations to create even surfaces occur very frequently and in different areas in the die & mould sector: It could be component-related, strategy-related due to the respective milling process or due to requirements for mould closing surfaces as well as sections and cutting dies. The right tool is then selected depending on the application and requirements.

  • On a rendered example component, an operation is highlighted.
    7 / 8

    Thin walls and ribs

    Plastic injection moulds and die casting moulds often have ribs and thin walls. Ribs, for example, are increasingly being milled, as this process is more cost-effective than EDM (spark eroding). As a rule, long or extra-long carbide tools with small diameters are used. Customer-specific solutions (RibCutter) to match the respective rib shape are also possible here.

    Small and large bores

    There is a wide range of full bore operations in the die & mould sector: From large bores for guide pillars and deep bores for the cooling system to high-precision bores for ejector pins. MAPAL offers a comprehensive portfolio of drilling and reaming tools for the individual production steps.
