Today's era is an information age, and the digitization of information is paid more and more attention by researchers. The so-called digital mold technology is the application of computer technology or computer-aided technology CAx in the process of mold design and manufacturing to promote the upgrading of China's intelligent manufacturing.
Digitization is based on the generation, processing, transmission, use, modification and storage of digital, with digital prototype as the core and single data source management as the link. In the process of design, manufacturing and management, digital quantity replaces analog quantity and digital technology replaces traditional technology, and digital quantity is used as the basis of design, manufacturing and management.
The competition of global manufacturing industry has developed into the competition of innovation ability since entering the 21st century, from the large-scale and reducing product costs in the early 20th century, improving the overall efficiency and product quality of enterprises in the middle and late 20th century, to the competition in delivery time, quality, price and service in the late 20th century. This situation leads to the focus of manufacturing competition on product R & D speed and innovation ability. In order to improve innovation ability and efficiency, digital strategy has become the first strategy of product innovation of multinational manufacturing enterprises.
The core of digitalization of mold manufacturing industry is digital manufacturing technology. Digital manufacturing refers to the rapid collection of resource information, analysis, planning and reorganization of product information, process information and resource information, simulation of product design and function and prototype manufacturing according to the needs of users with the support of virtual reality, computer network, rapid mold forming, database and multimedia, Quickly produce products that meet the performance requirements of users, and the whole manufacturing process.
Over the past 30 years of reform and opening up, the GDP of China's mold manufacturing industry has developed into a world champion. In the next few decades, China will realize the transformation from a large mold industry country to a powerful mold industry country. Improving the ability of technological innovation and product quality has become an urgent need for the development of China's manufacturing industry. Accelerating the digital transformation of mold manufacturing industry and promoting the transformation and upgrading from made in China to intelligent manufacturing in China will fundamentally change China's economic development mode.
Digital production mode is an important development direction of excellent mold manufacturing industry. The digitization of mold manufacturing industry is the result of the intersection, integration, development and application of mold manufacturing technology, computer technology, network technology and management science. It is also the inevitable trend of the continuous digitization of mold manufacturing enterprises, mold manufacturing systems, mold production processes and production systems. With the development of information technology, the digitization of mold manufacturing industry is constantly strengthened, and the cross integration of mold manufacturing technology and information technology. The digitization of mold manufacturing industry has become a breakthrough for information technology to transform traditional industries and realize informatization to drive industrial upgrading.
