Sustainable 3D mould design and manufacturing

Development and implementation of scientific tools and principles for designing and manufacturing of sustainable products such as 3D moulds for glass bottles blowing are very important. 3D modelling will be described on the cases of glass products. The mass production industry of glass blowing will be described. CAD and CAM programme will be used for technical documentation-drawings and also for cutting technology planning in moulds machining. CAM (Computer Aided Manufacturing) programme for mould machining will be prepared for application on 3-axial milling CNC machine tool. Specialities as drilling of long bores (vacuum bores) will be explained. Dry and near dry cutting will be included in machining processes as elements of sustainable manufacturing. When all machining operations are done, moulds are checked (dimensions, surface quality, fitting on other tool parts) and when the production of the bottles start, each manufactured product is thoroughly examined.
