  1. B&W - 10 Year Anniversary Event PDX - Progressive Die Extension

  2. Target Industrial Sector / Market Situation / Pricing Target Industrial Sector • Tooling industry for cutting and bending of sheetmetal parts created in progressive dies technology. • Not applicable for Biehler automates. Market Situation • Successfully especially for existing Pro/ENGINEER customers. • Main competitors are SolidWorks and TopSolid. • Problem to address customers with heavily shaped products (deep drawing processes). Pricing 7000 € software, 1050 € annual maintenance

  3. Product History • Version 1.2 • available spring 2002 • based on experience of long term consultingproject at ABB Stotz Kontakt • Strip layout, component engine, screws and pins, holechart. • Version 2.2 • available winter 2005 • regeneration control for contoured cut stamps • sketched stamp reference parts • new technology to reduce memory usage for large strips. • new analysis functionality. • Version 2.0 • available spring 2003. • Modification functionality incomponent engine. • Improvement for more robust designs. • Version 5.0 • available summer 2007 • proxy stamp reference part • improved user interface • change over functionality • improved BOM functionality • Version 2.1 • available spring 2004 • fast regeneration technology. • Version 6.0 • available spring 2008 • compliance to Wildfire 4.0

  4. Customers all over the World Dell, Intel, Boing, FCI Doug Boles Dba Quality, Raytheon Company, Hobson & Motzer, Tyco Electronics FCI, Volkswagen, ABB Stotz Kontakt, Dura Automotive, Rudi Göbel GmbH, Berotti Giovanni, Matriceria Invir, Pinamonti Sergio, Schneider, Studio Tecnico, Inovan Epson, Henan Tienhai Electric, Hon Hai Precision Industry, Forhouse Corporation, ITC Infotech India Limited, Ingress Research SDN HBD SIO, Stibel Eltron Fox Valley Tool and Die, Taber Bushnell, Finestamping inc.

  6. Article Preparation Article preparation Strip layout Die Set Components Screws & Pins BOM / Manufact. Analysis

  7. Strip Layout Article preparation Strip layout Die Set Components Screws & Pins BOM / Manufact Analysis

  8. Strip Layout - Menus Article preparation Strip layout Die Set Components Screws & Pins BOM / Manufact Analysis

  9. Strip Layout - Assembly Structure Article preparation Strip layout Die Set Components Screws & Pins BOM / Manufact Analysis

  10. Strip Layout - Proxy Stamp Reference Part Article preparation Strip layout Die Set Components Screws & Pins BOM / Manufact Analysis Proxy stamp reference part to create rounds and chamfers depended from article instance. Real stamp reference part as offset. • relocation stamp reference parts could cause trouble because of missing reference for rounds, chamfers, etc. • Use a proxy stamp reference part on the first article instance to avoid these problems • Move the real stamp reference part to the desired location

  11. Strip Layout - Improve Interference Checks Article preparation Strip layout Die Set Components Screws & Pins BOM / Manufact Analysis • Automatic trimming of stamp reference parts against article requires interference checks. • For complex strips these interference checks requires a long calculation time. • Disable the interference checks and select manually which parts should be checked.

  12. Die Set - Plates Wizard Article preparation Strip layout Die Set Components Screws & Pins BOM / Manufact Analysis

  13. Plates Wizard - Enhancements • Create structured Die Sets • Drag and drop plates to an assembly structure • Use copy and paste functionality to insert existing plates twice • Improved handling techniques • Show and hide views • Show and hide plates or sub assemblies • Show 3D view • Use snap lines to create plates • Use multi selections to change several plates in one single step

  14. Components Article preparation Strip layout Die Set Components Screws & Pins BOM / Manufact Analysis • A variety of library elements for pierce stamps, form stamps, guides and equipment is shipped with PDX (suppliers: Strack, Misumi, Fibro, MDL, ...) • Beyond standard components, progressive dies tool designers are using a large variety of in house standards. • PDX is build up with the help of a script programming language to make components customizable to a very high detail. • Several larger customers are usually ordering consulting services to get their standards in.

  15. Component - Operations Article preparation Strip layout Die Set Components Screws & Pins BOM / Manufact Analysis The following operations are available for already assembled components: • Create existing component • Assemble an existing component again • Copy existing component • Assemble a copy of an existing component again • Available for components with a consecutive number • Modify component • Modify a component using the user interface • Selected reference can not be modified • Replace component by copy • Replace a component by a copy • Available for components with a consecutive number • Replace component by exist • Replace a component by an existing component • Remove component • Remove the selected component

  16. PDX - Screws & Pins Article preparation Strip layout Die Set Components Screws & Pins BOM / Manufact Analysis

  17. Bill of Material Support Article preparation Strip layout Die Set Components Screws & Pins BOM / Manufact Analysis • The new BOM dialog box can display the BOM-parameters in list- or model tree-view. • The model tree-view is 100% equal to the Pro/ENIGNEER-model tree with additional column display. It just provides better options to modify parameters etc. • While the model tree-view shows the BOM-parameters for each component the list-view will summarize all comps with equal parameter sets to the correct BOM list.

  18. Holechart Article preparation Strip layout Die Set Components Screws & Pins BOM / Manufact Analysis • Identical to SmartHolechart • PDX 2.2 SmartHolechart 4.1 • PDX 5.0 SmartHolechart 5.0

  19. Analysis - Tool Opening Simulation Article preparation Strip layout Die Set Components Screws & Pins BOM / Manufact Analysis Tool opening simulation • Opening tool to a specific height, • Rotation of the models above strip, • Opening animation.

  20. Analysis - Tool Opening Simulation Article preparation Strip layout Die Set Components Screws & Pins BOM / Manufact Analysis Strip collision • Check the interferences with the Strip Assembly, • Highlight the intersection.

  21. Analysis - Calculate Line Chain Center Article preparation Strip layout Die Set Components Screws & Pins BOM / Manufact Analysis Line chain center calculation • Calculate center of selected curves and edges • Select coordinate system for origin • Create point on line center
