Solid Edge(CAD) + NX CAM + NX Mold + NX 2027 CAM Interface

Explore the essential components and steps of injection mold design, including core and cavity, ejector systems, runners, cooling, and cavity layout, plus the workflow from initialization to mold simulation.

Define regions and create the parting surface to separate core and cavity, using guidelines and vertical lines, then verify surfaces and finalize cavity and core with zero phases.

Design and implement the ejection system for mold tooling, detailing ejector pin design, diameter options, and positioning. Create ejector pins via concept design, then apply booster trimming to refine surfaces.

Generate bill of materials and assembly drawings from mold designs; export part data to Excel and build isometric, sections, and part lists for CAD drafting.

Apply patch surface to fill voids, define the coordinate system and regions, and establish core and cavity with a parting surface in Solid Edge and NX CAM workflows.

Initialize the mold wizard and set up the project, then create a patch surface by selecting reference faces, edges, and a guide, and applying batch surface steps.

Initialize the project, set millimeter units, and define the coordinate system. Define cavity and core regions, create parts and surfaces, and generate the parting surface with the mold wizard.

Design and simulate mold cavity cooling channels and circuits with nx mold. Define channel networks, runner systems, and gates, then run simulations.

Explore 3 axis rough operations, including plunge and blank milling. Set up stock and tools, and define step over, step ahead, maximum cut width, and differentiate from cavity milling.

Explore 3 axis planar operation and planar with ibw in nx cam, including selecting cut areas and identifying the workpiece, and managing blank distance for finishing passes.

Execute three-axis finish operations using z-level profile to machine vertical faces, after establishing tools, geometry, material, and rough milling steps, and verify results with simulation.

Learn three axis finish operations in NX CAM, focusing on contour, fix it contour, and streamline methods, with emphasis on area boundaries and thresholds for steep versus non-steep surfaces.

Master multi-axis finish operations by configuring tool axis control for four- and five-axis machining, using zigzag patterns and axis methods such as toward point, toward line, and away from point.

Explore multi-axis finish operations and tool axis control, comparing away from line and toward line methods, using lines parallel to the direction to generate precise tool paths.

Explore tool axis control in multi-axis finish operations by setting normal to part or normal to work, and adjusting lead angle and tilt angle for precise orientation.

The session demonstrates multi axis finish operations in z level 5 axis, defining the workplace and blank, selecting the finish phase, setting work points and angles, and generating passes.

Define the workpiece and geometry, set wire diameter, and select internal trim for a wire EDM operation. Establish rough and finish passes, build the tool bus, and verify movements.

Master how to control cut levels in NX CAM by configuring multiple ranges and depths per cut, adding new ranges, and tailoring material removal across zones.
