VX Mold and Die

Integrated mold and die design


VX Mold & Die includes an easy to use utility for automatically creating parting lines and faces. VX Mold & Die also handles inserts, cooling channels, connectors and ejector pins. As with parting lines, VX can automate core cavity removal. Unlike other systems, a couple of quick mouse clicks handles the entire process. VX is the only CAD/CAM system to offer reverse engineering tools in the core system. With the electrode wizard, VX speeds creation of the mold electrode that automatically handles electrode offset. Our unique planar option burns the electrode up to 40 percent faster than other methods. This provides for a very strong combination for all those that design complex molds and dies.
