3D Digitizing in Tool and Moldmaking

Measuring Systems: ATOS, TRITOP

Keywords: Tool try-out, part shrinkage and springback, duplication

In tool and moldmaking it is important to capture the actual contour of a mold as shrinkage and springback of those parts is compensated during the production process. During tool try-out and pilot production, the tools that were manufactured according to the CAD data are finalized by reworking. The complete digitizing with ATOS and TRITOP of current tools and molds provide for defining the master. Based on this master, reworking of the tool is planned and carried out accordingly. In addition, a tool can be duplicated quickly without any problems.
