About Automotive Tools Design, The Secret You Have To Know

GDM specializes in precise automotive injection molds, automotive stamping dies, precise machining parts. With plenty of experience, GDM has provides service for domestic and overseas companies. Now we would like to introduce how GDM can make cost down and improve the production efficiency.

In the below you can see an example for automotive lighting. As traditional design, it will occur the below problems:

1, B plate steel is too heavy (1460X950X650mm=7050KG), so the mold cost is too high (2738HHX7050KG=￥170,000）；

2, Solid mold structure not only increase the difficulty of mold machining, but also increase the machining risks, so that the mold cost will go high;

GDM put forward some innovative design concepts and make some optimized proposal after CAE moldflow analysis, which also bring some good results.

1, Change the steel thickness for B plate from 650mm to be 564mm, so that the steel can be saved by 1460X950X86mm=940KG, which directly cut the steel cost by ￥23,000；

2，To improve the machining technique, it saved 4 days for the whole set of mold in the machining, so that lead time can be shortened.

GDM takes “beyond customers’ expectation” as our business goal, to build the first-class mold company in the world. We are able to make automotive plastic and stamping molds/dies， and we can provide one-stop service for customers.
