NX CAD/CAM Simulation, Optimization and Automation Software Development for Tooling Development Industry

The design and manufacturing of dies and molds represent a significant link in the entire production chain. It is on the critical path of development of many products, such as automobile and consumer electronics. The tooling development industries always meet three challenges: the demand for research and development speed, the high requirement for labor skill, and the quality of product. By means of Siemens NX Product Lifecycle Management software, integrated process simulation, workflow optimization and post processing automation systems will be developed in this research project to improve the efficiency of the entire tooling development company, improve the product quality and reduce the requirement of labor skill and training cost, finally increase the global competitiveness. The partner organization benefits in both the form of new and improved product. And also it helps create a synergy and collaboration between industry and academia.
