The Development Status Of Domestic Automobile Molds

Since the reform and opening up, with the rapid development of the national economy, the market demand for molds has continued to increase. In recent years, the mold industry has been developing rapidly at a growth rate of about 15%, and all the components of the mold industry enterprises have also undergone tremendous changes. In addition to state-owned professional mold factories, collectives, joint ventures, sole proprietorships and private companies have also developed rapidly. The "Hometown of Mould" in Ningbo and Huangyan, Zhejiang; some large corporations and rapidly rising township enterprises in Guangdong, Kelon, Midea, Konka and other groups have established their own mold manufacturing centers; Sino-foreign joint ventures and wholly foreign-owned mold companies are now There are thousands of companies. With the accelerating pace of integration with international standards and increasing market competition, people have become more and more familiar with the importance of product quality, cost, and the ability to develop new products. Mold manufacturing is one of the most basic elements in the entire chain. Mold manufacturing technology has now become an important indicator to measure the level of a country's manufacturing level, and to a large extent determines the living space of an enterprise.

In recent years, many mold companies have increased their investment in technological advancement and regard technological advancement as an important driving force for enterprise development. Some domestic mold companies have popularized two-dimensional CAD, and have successively started to use international general software such as UG, Pro/Engineer, I-DEAS, Euclid-IS, and individual manufacturers have also introduced Moldflow, C-Flow, DYNAFORM, Optris and MAGMASOFT, etc. CAE software has been successfully applied to the design of stamping dies.

The manufacturing technology of large-scale stamping molds represented by automobile panel molds has made great progress. Mold manufacturers such as Dongfeng Motor Company's mold factory and FAW mold center have been able to produce some car panel molds. In addition, many research institutions and colleges and universities carry out research and development of mold technology. After years of hard work, significant progress has been made in mold CAD/CAE/CAM technology; it has made contributions in improving mold quality and shortening mold design and manufacturing cycles.
