Fitting Die Maintenance Into Press Operations

When a die for a production part needs maintenance, finding the least-cost fix in the shortest time is critical. Here are some ways that tooling engineers can achieve time savings of over 80 percent and avoid costly die rework by using next generation root cause software to simulate the iteration process.

HIGH PRECISION GRINDER FOR PUNCH AND DIE MAINTENANCE

The ValuGrind™ grinder from Mate Precision Tooling uses an extra large 165 mm diameter diamond grinding wheel for the best finish that ensures superior surface flatness and lets fabricators precisely regrind punches and dies to maintain optimum condition for the highest quality parts production.
