"Pro/ENGINEER模具设计综述与实践指南"

Pro/ENGINEER software is widely used in mold design, with its various modules and functions specifically designed for injection molding. The software interface is composed of different components, including the model tree, file browser, and favorites tab. The crucial aspects of Pro/ENGINEER configuration files and their functions must be fully understood in order to effectively utilize the software for mold design. Additionally, navigating through different options and pages within the software is essential for creating accurate mold designs. In the first chapter, the structure of injection molds and the related modules in Pro/ENGINEER are discussed, along with an overview of the software interface and configuration files. Understanding the functions of the model tree and other navigation options is emphasized as key points for successful mold design. Moving on to the second chapter, the basics of mold design in Pro/ENGINEER are covered in detail. The design process, entering mold design mode, creating mold models, setting shrinkage rates, establishing parting surfaces, and creating gating systems are all important steps in mold design. The significance of mold accuracy and file management is also highlighted, as well as the challenges in setting shrinkage rates and creating parting surfaces. The third chapter focuses on mold analysis and inspection, including mold analysis for draft detection and the importance of mold accuracy. The challenges in creating parting surfaces and managing mold files are highlighted as key points in mold design. Overall, mastering Pro/ENGINEER for mold design requires a solid understanding of its modules and functions, along with attention to detail in configuring settings and creating accurate mold components. Thorough analysis and inspection of mold designs are crucial for ensuring the quality and functionality of the final product.
