Luo Baihui: The top priority of collaborative design in the mold industry is to build an information platform

Mould is an important process equipment for manufacturing industry. Mold technology has become one of the important signs to measure the manufacturing level of a country's products. Although China had made molds and used molds long ago, it has not yet formed an industry. Because mold manufacturing has long been considered as a means of ensuring the production of enterprise products, it has been slow to develop.

In recent years, the important role of the mold in the industry has begun to receive more and more people's attention, and its status has also been increasing. However, freezing three feet a day and a cold, to fully boost China's mold industry, but also need to use the development results of new technologies, new ideas, improve the quality of the mold industry development.

At present, one of the most remarkable changes in the mold industry is collaborative design. Collaborative design refers to the process of coordinating and coordinating with different design departments and different specialties within a company's internal business and accomplishing a project through information. Collaborative design focuses on improving the level of information management, strengthening the collaborative cooperation of design teams, and promoting the optimal allocation of resources to build the core competitiveness of enterprises.

So, for the current domestic mold industry, how to promote collaborative design based on the actual situation? Luo Baihui, a mold specialist, believes that at present, the domestic mold industry has the disadvantages of inadequacy of information technology, software services can not keep up with software functions, hidden dangers of information security, lack of coordination among information and other shortcomings. In the domestic mold industry to promote collaborative design, establish an information platform It is the most important thing.

In order to improve the level of collaborative design in the mold industry, echoing government policies, domestic CAD service companies represented by Haochen CAD have customized the information platform for the mold industry. Among them, Haochen CAD has a typical representation of the information platform established by Kunshan Mould Specialty Industrial Base.

Kunshan Mould Specialty Industry Base has gathered more than 1,000 companies engaged in mold production, design and professional training from more than 10 countries and regions including the United States and France. In 2007, the base achieved sales of mold products of 7.072 billion yuan, accounting for 10% of the country's total. It ranks first among the 26 mold cluster production bases in the country and achieved sales of more than 10 billion yuan in 2008. According to a survey conducted by the China Die and Mould Association, the mold industry base in Kunshan has become the largest industrial base in China's mold industry with the highest level of technology.

Under the background of “convergence of the two industries,” based on the specific conditions of China's mold industry, combined with the characteristics of Kunshan mold industry, with nearly 20 industrial software technologies and experience in the mold industry, Haochen Software has created a domestic mold industry development. The new model, currently built Haochen Kunshan mold industry information platform has the following main functions:

1. Provide lean R & D service platform for SMEs, including professional software (such as special software for the plastic mold industry: Hao Chen CAD 2011, Yan Xiu mold toolbox, etc.), software integration and product development;

2. Provide public information service center to facilitate the download and upload of CAD information, realize resource sharing and information exchange, and meet the needs of different users of the entire industrial chain of the mold industry;

3. We will implement a talent training network and establish a mold association CAD training base.

The platform project was established under the strong support of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the China Industrial Software Industry Alliance, the Shanghai Mould Industry Association, the Kunshan Economic and Information Technology Commission, the Kunshan Copyright Bureau, and other departments. On December 22, 2011, the Chinese industry At the ceremony for the first anniversary of the Software Industry Development Alliance and the awarding ceremony for domestic CAD medium-sized public service platforms, Haochen CAD made a special report on the platform as the sole co-organizer of the event.
