Overview

VISI Mould is a comprehensive mould tool design solution developed by Hexagon. It leverages industry-specific automation to guide users through the entire mould development process. With dynamic operation previews, designers can observe real-time impacts of component modifications on the tool design, enhancing efficiency and accuracy.

Features and Capabilities

• Automatic Recognition of Design Changes: Ensures that any alterations in the design are promptly identified and incorporated, maintaining design integrity.
• Draft Angle Visualisation: Provides clear visual feedback on draft angles, facilitating the identification of potential manufacturing issues early in the design phase.
• Multiple Split Line Calculations: Offers precise calculations for multiple split lines, aiding in the accurate separation of core and cavity models.
• Core and Cavity Model Separation: Enables efficient division of models into core and cavity components, streamlining the mould design process.
• Dynamic 3D Tool Design: Allows for interactive and flexible 3D tool design, accommodating complex geometries and design modifications with ease.
• Customisable Supplier Catalogues: Provides access to a range of supplier catalogues that can be tailored to specific project needs, ensuring component compatibility and availability.
• Intelligent Component Editing: Facilitates smart editing of components, allowing designers to make adjustments efficiently without compromising the overall design.
• Slides, Lifters, and Flexible Up and Away Units: Supports the integration of complex components such as slides and lifters, enhancing the functionality and manufacturability of the mould.
• 3D Cooling with Collision Check: Incorporates 3D cooling channel design with built-in collision detection, ensuring optimal cooling performance and preventing design conflicts.
• Associative Tool Detailing: Maintains associations between the tool design and its detailed drawings, ensuring that any design changes are automatically reflected in the documentation.
• Automatic Bill of Materials (B.O.M.) Creation: Generates comprehensive B.O.M. reports automatically, aiding in resource planning and procurement processes.
• Seamless Link to Manufacturing: Ensures a smooth transition from design to manufacturing, reducing lead times and minimizing errors in production.
