Abstract: In the paper, the injection process of mold sleeve is simulated with Moldflow software, and the filling time, cavitation, weld, and causes warping are analyzed. The warping effects on the workpiece surface quality. Moldflow software can optimize gating system and shorten the fill time, improve the quality of plastic surface, reduce the number of repair mode, and shorten the product development cycle.

Abstract: At present, high speed machining (HSM) features in high efficiency, high precision, high flexibility and high quality. HSM technology involves many factors, including cutting mechanisms, machining performance, tool path and other aspects. The key techniques on HSM such as linear interpolation, circular interpolation, cubic B-spline curve interpolation, non-uniform rational B-spline (NURBS) curve interpolation and their respective characteristics are paid more attention and expatiated.

The key techniques on HSM such as linear interpolation, circular interpolation, cubic B-spline curve interpolation, non-uniform rational B-spline (NURBS) curve interpolation and their respective characteristics are paid more attention and expatiated. Circle arcs are approximated by using intersecting polygons instead of general inscribed polygons. NURBS interpolation algorithms can reduce feedrate fluctuation and improve machining accuracy.

Abstract: Based on Finite Element Analysis (FEA) module of Dynaform software, the paper made numerical simulation of a wheel hub’s stamping process in the method of elastic-plastic flow, pointed out the behavior of deformation of stamping process, predicted and prevented stamping defect such as crack in the process, and calculated the degree of resilience. Consequently three forming numerical simulation schemes have been designed respectively, more feasible process parameters has been achieved in comparison with the features of each scheme.

Abstract: With the higher quality requirement of automotive assembly, the demand for forming precision of the stamping part gets higher. The simulation of resilience around the edge of drawn parts of autobody panels has become a hot spot of automotive field. Currently, the study on resilience mainly focused on the principle of resilience of bent parts and its relative control whereas the investigation on resilience of drawing process is quite less. This paper has studied the object of automobile cover panel through comparison of captured contour to calculate the resilience of edges of part, resolve the resilience problems of drawn part, for which the traditional calculation method and CAE software, focusing on bending resilience issues, couldn’t provide their solution.

Abstract: High Speed Milling (HSM) is well known as an innovative key technology for modern machining. HSM can obtain very high surface qualities, subsequent manually finishing operations can be eliminated in many cases totally or at least partially. Theoretical and experimental researches have proven that the cutting force in a high speed milling process has significant influences both on surface roughness and deflection of the cutting tool. In this paper, mould steel for high speed milling experiments by multi-factor test on the high speed milling machine tools. By studying the relation of overhang length, cutting speed and cutting force of cutting parameters, the cutting force tested is analyzed in high speed milling. When mold steel is cut at high speed, the influence of cutting speed on cutting force is studied, which has a guidance in the actual production.

Through the application of Moldflow / MPI (Moldflow Plastics Insight) software for CAE under a comprehensive analysis of the shell molds, injection molding parameters such as mold temperature, melt temperature, injection time and injection pressure are used to simulate the actual production process. This shows the Moldflow technology plays a significant role in the mold development process for optimizing plastic products design, plastic mold design and injection process parameters, etc.

Abstract: Pocket corner in the high-speed milling (HSM) often occur under-cut, over-cut, vibration and other phenomena. This not only reduces tool life, seriously affected the work-piece machining accuracy and processing efficiency. In the paper, the impact of cutting speed on cutting forces is studied in the pocket corner based on the high-speed milling experiments. The results show that cutting force increased slightly with the increase in cutting speed, and that cutting force no significant change with the increase in radial depth of cut.
