In the shoe mold manufacturing industry, factories often encounter several common processing challenges. One of the most prominent issues is redundant processing paths. Traditional machining methods frequently lead to inefficient routes, causing unnecessary tool wear and longer processing times. Another pain point is the rough surface finish of the molds. This not only affects the appearance of the final product but also may lead to quality issues in the shoes produced. Additionally, the time-consuming tool and fixture changeovers disrupt the production flow and reduce overall efficiency.
The DC6060A intelligent control system features an advanced adaptive tool path generation function. It can analyze the complex geometry of the shoe mold in real - time and generate the most efficient tool paths accordingly. This reduces the redundant movements of the tool, saving up to 20% of the processing time compared to traditional methods.
With multi - axis linkage compensation, the system can precisely control the movement of each axis. It compensates for any deviations that may occur during the machining process, ensuring high - precision machining. This function significantly improves the accuracy of the mold, reducing the error rate to less than 0.05mm.
The dynamic avoidance algorithm in the DC6060A system allows the tool to automatically avoid obstacles during machining. This is especially useful when dealing with complex shoe mold structures, preventing collisions and damage to the tool and the workpiece.
The rotary table plays a crucial role in machining complex shoe last structures. For example, it enables the integrated forming of the arch of the foot and the curved surface of the heel. By rotating the workpiece, the machine can access different angles, achieving a seamless and precise machining of the complex geometries. This not only improves the quality of the mold but also reduces the number of setups required, saving time and labor costs.
A well - known shoe mold factory implemented the DC6060A intelligent control system in its production line. After the implementation, the mass - production cycle was shortened by 30%. The factory was able to produce more molds in less time, increasing its overall production capacity. Moreover, the scrap rate dropped to below 2%, which means a significant reduction in waste and cost savings. The factory's customer, a quote from the factory manager, said, "The DC6060A system has truly transformed our production process. We have achieved a level of efficiency and quality that was previously unattainable."
Integrating the DC6060A system with digital design software such as Rhino + Mastercam brings end - to - end efficiency improvements. The seamless connection between the control system and the design software allows for direct transfer of design data, eliminating the need for manual data input and reducing the risk of errors. This integration enables a more streamlined production process, from design to machining, further enhancing the overall efficiency of the shoe mold manufacturing.
Intelligent path optimization in the shoe mold industry offers significant cost - reduction and efficiency - improvement benefits. By reducing processing time, improving quality, and minimizing waste, factories can increase their competitiveness in the market. Looking to the future, the trend towards智能化 production will continue to grow. More and more shoe mold factories will adopt intelligent control systems to overcome the limitations of traditional manufacturing processes.
