Tool design services
Tool design services include design and construction, product development, prototyping and validation, system design and engineering, test design and construction, integration of mechanical and electrical systems, mechanical design, etc. Production capabilities include production, assembly, testing, integration, installation and project management. Industries served include pulp and paper, defense, aviation, heavy equipment, energy, machine tools, etc. The design of the tool can also significantly affect the heating percentages of parts. The recommendations for designing an individual tool are fairly obvious and are well understood in the industry; materials with a high thermal conductivity are heated faster than those with a low thermal conductivity; and tools with well-designed gas flow circuits are heated faster than those with limited flow paths. Cutting tools, often used for complex parts and large unitary structures, pose its own set of problems. The dimensions and fi...
