The design of fixtures and jigs is generally carried out according to the specific requirements of a certain process after the mechanical processing technology of the parts is formulated.
The rapid development of mold manufacturing technology has become an important component of modern manufacturing technology. Such as mold CAD/CAM technology, mold laser rapid prototyping technology, mold precision forming technology, mold ultra precision machining technology, mold design using finite element method and boundary element method for dynamic simulation of flow, cooling, and heat transfer processes, mold CIMS technology, developed mold DNM technology, and CNC technology, almost covering all modern manufacturing technologies.
