Once the dies have been completed and the basic mould base is in place, the extra components needed to complete the mould assembly can be added.

The complete top mould assembly is then inverted onto the floor pan mould and joined, and the whole thing left to cure overnight.

Procedure: Weigh the mould, with baseplate and extension attached, to 5g Attach the extension to the mould and place the mould assembly on a solid base, e.g. a concrete floor or plinth.

Günther thinks small: New from Günther [Stand 2 C03] is the 3SLT 230V nozzle range for limited mould assembly conditions with narrow nozzle and cavity pitches and small moulded parts.

They were the regular support band for the Liverpool groups who came to play at Mold Assembly Rooms.

Mold assembly - The two shell halves are joined together and securely clamped to form the complete shell mold.

Design Brief: To produce a Molded Assembly that was capable of receiving cable in a hostile environment, with the structural strength to sustain high water pressure and chemical mixes.

The sand mixture is tamped down as it is added around the pattern, and the final mold assembly is sometimes vibrated to compact the sand and fill any unwanted voids in the mold.

For mold design training, both the literature presentation and 2D and 3D graph presentations, incorporating the virtual reality to simulate mold assembly, was designed using Pro/E CAD and virtual reality tools (VRML).

Mold makers around the world have been quick to realize the benefits of using Cimatron's integrated solutions: "We can now construct the mold and complete the mold assembly 30% faster than before," said a senior mold designer at Junker & Halverscheid (Germany).
