3D model creation
for part, gage, die sets, etc. is
required |
Print, customer
supplied model, verbal instructions, sample part or
other source documents
provided |
Begin model construction. When a print exists,
mark, in green the dimensions that are achievable;
Mark, in red, the dimensions that are not achievable;
Dimensions or notes that present questions should be
marked in blue and note on the print. NOTE: red and
blue markups MUST be properly addressed. Compare the
model to the last cast, pattern, customer supplied
model or other source
documents provided. Forward to another Engineer for
inspection and approval once model construction is
complete. |
Model construction completed and passed on to
another Engineer for inspection |

2
|
Engineer or
Machining Department Programmer (other than the one
in Step 1) |
Once model is created and passed on for
inspection |
Print; customer supplied model, verbal
instructions, sample part or
other source documents provided and
newly constructed model |
Inspect the model. Strike through the marked up
green dimensions once it is verified that they
match; the dimensions marked in red indicating not
achievable should be validated and verified that
not possible; dimensions with questions in blue
should be validated. NOTE:
red and blue markup issues MUST be signed off once
addressed. Inspect the
model so that critical features of the model
compare to the last cast, pattern, customer
supplied model or other source
documents provided. If approved,
note approval on 3D Die Design Checksheet and go to
Step 5. Otherwise go back to Step

Die and/or trimmer tooling model
creation is required |
Print, customer supplied model,
scanned image, verbal or written instructions or
own knowledge |
Construct die model and/or trimmer
tooling models. Fill in the 3D Die Design
Checksheet with information for all impressions and
tooling. Forward to another Engineer for
inspection. |

After new die and/or trim tooling models completed and before approval
|
Supplied die models, 3D Die Check Sheet, info from discussion
|
Using DEFORM, simulate forge process until satisfied with results; forward to another Engineer for forging simulation, die and trim tooling models inspection and approval.

3 or 4)
|
Once forging simulation, die model and trim tooling models are created and passed on for inspection
|
Print, customer supplied model,
scanned image, and newly constructed die and/or trim models,
3D Die Design Checksheet, forging simulation
|
Review and approve forging simulation then inspect the die and/or trim tooling models. Use all tools including own knowledge and experience and 3D Die Design Checksheet; If approved note on 3D Die Design Checksheet, if not approved go back to Step 3.
