TOP > Technology > Production Technology　> Equipment and Die /Mold Making Processes
 We manufacture machinery and die/mold in our engineering business, as an innovation leader in mono-zukuri.
Design We have a consistent design system from part design to and die/mold data preparation by using 3-D solid design, including CAD and CAE technologies. This system allows us to have concurrent design with customers so that and die casting/molding production engineering requirements may be met and incorporated into products.
Machining and measurement We prepare machining data according to the 3-D milling shape data, and we perform high-speed and high-quality machining with 3-D NC machines. In the machining process, cavity shapes and function areas are automatically measured according to the 3-D die milling shape data and die/mold drawings to obtain accurate dimensions.
Testing In the final assembly process, we check the assembly dimensional accuracy and the functions of the die/mold. We also check the cooling performance of a die/mold with a thermograph for assurance. After a die/mold is completed, we conduct testing using in-house casting machines (500 to 3,500 tons) to check productivity and casting quality as well as to check the blank. In the blank dimensional measurement, we develop a measurement program from the blank drawing, and perform 3-D automatic measurement. We also evaluate acceptance of the blank to the specified standard.
