Automation in mold making (www.polyformnext.de)
Milling, eroding and measuring in unmanned shifts
Successful mold making requires thinking in terms of process chains. In terms of implementation, this requires support from appropriate software systems and machine technology. The more complex the molds, the more closely the design and the individual production steps as well as the quality inspection must be linked.

Automated mold making
Those responsible at SD Formentechnik in Lüdenscheid have long been thinking in terms of networked process chains. For die-sinking EDM, the mold makers rely on Zimmer & Kreim: The Chameleon and the Alphamoduli workshop software integrate not only the EDM systems but also a machining center for electrode milling and the measuring machine.
