Mold programming

2021-09-26

Many friends who are just beginning to know programming are not so familiar with it. Both products and molds have their own characteristics, so we can consult our seniors during the programming process, so that we can avoid more detours, so today I will share with you a master's experience on mold programming, I hope it will be helpful to the friends, and the friends who have other experience and skills can come out to exchange and learn!
1. Carefully review the content of the drawing, whether the dimensions are complete, whether the view is clear, and the drawing remarks must be read.
2. Before programming, determine the processing technology, determine the benchmark and select the appropriate clamping method.
3. Carefully review the content of the drawing, whether the dimensioning is complete, whether the view is clear, and the drawing remarks must be read.
4. Choose the appropriate processing parameters according to the material of the workpiece, the performance of the CNC machine and the quality of the processing tools. The parameters are not invariable. The theoretical programming parameters are either too slow or too fast. There is no standard. Don't be superstitious about those parameters. The most suitable is the best. Okay, listen to the sound based on experience, and you will know it in your heart after listening more.
5. The tool path that needs to be extended in the programming must be extended to avoid leaving material or stepping on the knife, so as a programmer, you must go to the site to confirm the size of the blank before doing the program.
6. Some relatively special-shaped workpieces need to be processed with ribs to be used as a base surface or to make the workpiece securely clamped. Be sure to pay attention to the final ribs to be removed.
7. Don't copy the tool path that has been changed, and then do other tool paths. To avoid safety accidents, you must not be afraid of trouble, even if you do another one.

9. When doing multiple processes, it is best to program each process as an independent drawing file. One is to prevent the drawing file from being too large and the processing program is too slow, and the other is to avoid errors in processing geometric coordinates, especially in In the case of the same drawing file with multiple geometric coordinates.
10. Some companies have their own templates and parameters, which are convenient for programming. If there is no template, you can make a template by yourself, which is convenient for yourself and colleagues.
11. In the case of a relatively large model, the program generation will be relatively slow. Without affecting the correctness of the program, try to segment the unneeded parts as much as possible. Each time you only need to select the part of the workpiece that needs to be programmed. However, in order to obtain a faster tool path, it is not necessary to select the workpiece every time. When we encounter a relatively small place to clean the corner, we can also make a blank to clean the corner.
12. When the finish requirements are relatively strict, the light knife must be divided into two times during the light knife to avoid the uneven opening of the rough margin and the effect of the light knife is not good. Another point is to pay attention to the choice of advance and retreat when the light knife is used, and do not perform important processing. Move the knife forward and backward to avoid leaving knife marks.

13. After the program is completed, it is very necessary to check the program. Try to optimize the program, reduce empty knife and unnecessary slow knife advancement. It is our necessary requirement to develop good habits.
