The content of mold precision includes four aspects: dimension precision, shape precision, position precision and appearance precision. Because the mold is divided into two parts: upper mold and lower mold, the position accuracy between the upper mold and the lower mold is the most important among the four kinds of accuracy.
3。 Mold precision is to serve the precision of products, high-precision products must be guaranteed by higher precision mold, mold precision generally must be higher than the precision of parts 2 or above.
Methods of improving die precision
1。 Precision guarantee of mould processing equipment
2。 Precision requirement of parts in mould manufacturing
①。 Mold material accuracy requirements
The processing tolerance of die steel shall be controlled within 300×300 + 0.005-0 ± 0.005300×500 + 0.01-0 ± 0.01500×800 + 0.01-0.01 ± 0.015800×1200 + 0.02-0.02 ± 0.02 ②. The accuracy requirement of die parts is a. Misumi guide pillar and guide sleeve series are used for guide parts affecting die precision, and the tolerance of superfinishing can be controlled within 0.002mm.
b。 The edge forming punch is made of Misumi standard material: SKD-11, hardness: 60-62hrc, edge shape: dregth punch is usually used for forming inner hole or cylinder shape of products. The precision of punching needle can be controlled within ± 0.01mm, and it can be about 2um for special requirements, and keep the mirror.
3。 The size of die gap is the main basis of die design and manufacturing accuracy. In order to ensure the product size accuracy, shape and position accuracy, and product quality (such as the quality of punch section and burr height), it is necessary to ensure the gap between the concave and convex dies.
4。 The construction precision of the mould is required. From the perspective of processing and assembly, the accuracy of mold base mainly includes the following aspects: a. The consistency of plane dimension and guide hole position of upper and lower formwork; B. Flatness and parallelism of large plane of formwork; C. Perpendicularity of guide hole to large plane; D. Perpendicularity between adjacent sides of formwork; e. The fitting accuracy between guide post and guide sleeve.
The main methods to ensure the accuracy of the mold base are as follows:
a。 One time processing method is that after the large plane of the template is processed, the upper and lower templates are clamped together, and the plane size and guide hole of two templates are processed at one time.
b。 One of the four guide holes is deviated from the symmetrical position to ensure the assembly orientation of the die.
c。 Datum is used for surface calibration.
d。 High precision guide post and guide sleeve are adopted.
e。 Improve the machining accuracy of parts.
②。 In order to ensure the accuracy of punch, from the perspective of processing and assembly, the accuracy of punch mainly includes: a. The shape and dimension accuracy of punch; B. Perpendicularity between adjacent sides of punch.
③。 From the perspective of processing and assembly, the accuracy of the die mainly includes: a. The shape and dimension accuracy of the die; B. Perpendicularity between adjacent sides of die; C. Perpendicularity of die side to large plane; D. Die position.
5。 The precision of forming processing is guaranteed. When processing the forming structure, whether it is processed by computer gong, EDM, WEDM or ordinary milling machine, coordinate processing method is adopted. The guarantee of the accuracy mainly depends on the accuracy of the machine tool and the accuracy of the operator’s calibration. It is considered that the concept of die precision should also run through the whole process of die design and manufacturing, just like the guidelines and guiding ideology of establishing enterprise product quality assurance and management system. In order to ensure the accuracy requirements of the closed loop of the die assembly dimension chain, strict control and management must be carried out on the key links and key factors affecting the accuracy of the die in the process of die manufacturing, outsourcing (including materials and standard parts) and the whole process of die assembly, die test, acceptance, packaging and transportation.
