Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire Camera Part Introduction
1. Demo Introduction
Change working directory to and open demo.prt
Hello and welcome to my Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire Mold and EMX demonstration. We’regoing to cover lots of new functionality that are included in the Tool Design Option and ExpertMold Base Extension…
2. Camera modelintroduction
Spin around the model andshow the complex surfaces ofthe model / internal ribs
This is the model data I had received from my customer (throw in some names such asSONY etc). As you can see, this camera model contains of high degree of complex surfacesand also internal ribs at the other side of the model….
3. Cross Section
View Manager / Xsec
I can easily create 3D cross section in Pro/ENGINEER model and check if the model hasinconsistent thickness, undercut etc, besides, I can integrate this cross section information to
my part drawing….
4. Draft Check
Analysis / Geometry / Draft
Before I start my mold design, I would like to analyze this camera model if it is fully drafted.This is very important information for a mold maker because draft angle will determine thesuccess of mold design. As you may see, this camera part is fully drafted which means I cango on for my mold design right away….

Mold Design – Splitting
5. Mold Design
Close the Camera part Window/File / New / Manufacturing / MoldCavity / ‘mold_demo’ or anyname(Make sure units are mm)
Let me close this camera model window and start my mold design right away. I need tocreate a new manufacturing file call ‘mold_design’……
6. Assemble Reference part
Select / and selectdemo.prt
Let me bring in the camera model into my mold design environment…
< talk about the new mold design icon…>
7. Merge the Referencemodel
Same Model and press OK
Now, Pro/ENGINEER creates a reference model automatically Or I can create my molddesign with the original model…
With merging to the same reference model, we are adding all the mold features such asShrinkage factor etc to the original model…
8. Coordinate System forRef Model
Ref.Model Origin and Orient
/ Select ‘MAIN’ coordinate system< separate window > at the refpart /
Pro/ENGINEER selected a default coordinate system at the ref model, however I would liketo select the other coordinate system at the ref model so that it assembles the way I want itto be.
9. Layout Preview
Preview
As you can see, the ref model has been assembled into my mold design environment andthis is how a single ref model is being assembled using a Coordinate System.

10. Rectangular Preview
Select Rectangular option and
Preview
Now I would like to design my mold with multiple cavities. Selecting Rectangular optionallows me to visualize how my mold will look with 4 cavities….
11. Rectangular Preview
Change the increment value
You can change the distance between these cavities. By changing the value at theincrement option to 120 and 150, you can see the models move according to the valueinstantly. You can also change the orientation of these cavities by selecting the X-symmetricoption or preview changes using a Y-symmetric option etc…
As for demo purposes, I would like to work on single cavity for my mold design.
12. Shrinkage Value
/ Select MAIN / UncheckIsotropic / enter 0.005 for X / Y
/ Z axis /
As you know, all the plastic molds must be included with Shrinkage values, this is how weadd a shrinkage value to my ref part….The scaling option is the best option for me, to add shrinkage value to this mold, I need toselect a coordinate system as a base of the shrinkage value. 0.005 will be the Shrinkagefactor for this mold…..
Now, 0.005 has been added to all the dimensions into this model…

13. Workpiece
/ SelectMOLD_DEF_CSYS / Enter 30for Uniform Offsets / OK
Creating a Work insert is really easy for Pro/ENGINEER, as you can see, Pro/ENGINEERdetects the actual size of my ref part and creates a work insert that envelopes the ref model.
However you may change the work insert size as you like. For this mold design, I’d like toadd bigger value to the work insert uniformly around the reference part…Uniform Offsets have not worked i n M030!
Now a work insert has been added to my mold design….
14. View Manager
View Manager/Style/New/ accept‘style0001’ as new name/ Edit /Redefine / Show / WireFrame /
Pick the WorkPiece / / Close
.
In order to make my job easier, I would like to add new view type to my mold design….
Now the Workpiece has been change from shading mode to Wire frame…
15. New Slider Volume
Select / Insert / Slider /
Now, it is time to show you how Pro/ENGINEER helps you to create a slider volume for yourmold design, first, we need to name the new slider volume, let’s call i t ‘slider’ etc…
16. New Slider Functionality
Select /
With the new slider functionality available in Pro/ENGINEER Wild Fire, undercut areas canbe easily detected and curves will be created automatically at the edges of the undercutareas which will be used for Volume creation….
17. New Slider Functionality
Select ‘Quilt 1’ and ‘ Quilt 2’ <press down CTL button to select
both of them / /
As you can see, I select the two quilts to include for my slider volume ….
Then the Slider volume is created automatically for me…..
18. Add Conventi onal SliderVolume
As you can see a Volume has been created from the curves. Now let me show another wayof creating slider Volume using conventional method….

19. Sketch Slider Volume
Select a sketch plane / select topplane as ref plane / done
Now, Pro/ENGINEER allows me to sketch the shape of the slider that I wanted to add on tothe existing slider volume. Let me select the sketch plane and top ref plane…….
20. Sketch Slider
Select the 4 edges as ref
curve/done/ RMB/rectangular/’sketch a rectangularwith a length approx 9-10mm /done
Pro/ENGINEER allows me the select any reference points as guides to my sketch. Let meselect these 4 edges as my ‘guide’ for sketching my slider…
I will use these references to sketch a rectangle for my additional slider volume….
As you can see, my sketched rectangle automatically snaps to the edge ……..as for thelength, maybe let’s give it 10mm….
21. Slider Depth
Up to surface / select theundercut surface
/
After I have completed my 2D sketch, Pro/ENGINEER prompts me for a depth, now, Iwanted the depth to be all the way to the undercut surface, let me select this surface as theend of the depth……
As you can see, a rectangular additional volume has been added to my existing slidervolume.
22. Parting line Creation
Select automatic parting line icon
/ / Preview to see the curve
The next things I want to do is to create parting surface to my mold design, however I wouldlike to show you how to create a automatic parting curve or Silhouette curve which drivesthe automatic parting surfaces generation….

23. Parting Surface Creation
Select /Define /
/ Exclude / OK
As you can see, Pro/ENGINEER creates curves at the all edges of this model and I wouldlike to remove the curves at the undercut areas which I have already created a slider volumefor ….
This is how we remove curves….just have to highlight curve no 4 and tell Pro/ENGINEER toexclude it…
24. Parting Surface Creation
Select / Chains tab / 5-1 Upper /‘change’ to lower / ok / ok
Sometimes, we may have problems controlling the location of the parting surface.Pro/ENGINEER can help us to overcome this problem very easily, as you can see, aSilhouette has been created at the upper edge of this hole and I can just change the curveto the lower edge of the hole which makes the parting surface lay at the bottom of the hole.
25. Parting Surface Creation
Select / / select the
Silhouette curve / / OK /
Done / OK /
Now, I would like to create a parting surface from the Silhouette curve I have just createdminutes ago……
Now, a full parting surface has been created right in front of our very eyes….
The parting surface fills up all the loops and as you can see, the parting surface createdaccording to the location of the Silhouette curves etc….

26. Splitting Slider Volume
Select / Two Volumes / AllWrkpcs / done / select the slidervolume / ok / ok / enter forthe big volume / enter for the slidervolume
Now, I need to split this big workpiece into 2 pieces, a main Volume and slider volume.
Let’s name the big volume as and the slider volume as
Note: the volume can be any name!!
27 Splitting Main Volume
Select again/ Two Volumes/Mold Volume / done / select onQuilt V1 volume >> / close /select on the Main Partingsurface / ok / ok
Classify the two volumes ascore_demo and cav_demo
We now need to split the main Volume into Core and Cavity , let’s select on V1 and thenselect on the Main Parting surface as splitting surface.
Pro/ENGINEER is smart enough to differentiate the upper portion and the lower portion of
V1, let’s name the lower portion as core_demo and cav_demo for the upper portion etc…
28. Extract Volume to Solid
Select / press CTL + holddown / select core_demo ,cav_demo and slider_demo / OK
What we need to do now is to ‘convert’ all the volumes into solid models…
This is how easy we can create solid models in the Pro/ENGINEER Mold Designenvironment…
29. ‘House Keeping’
Select / selectMold_demo_wrk / Blank / Volume/ Select / Mold_vol_1/ Blank /Parting Surface/ Select /Part_Surf_1/ Blank / Close
‘House Keeping’ process is an optional step here, with this option, I can actually blankVolume, Parting Surfaces and Components which have no impact to my work ….
For this case, I would like to blank the parting surface, volume and workpiece which I don’trequire for my work ….
By blanking these components, it helps to provide a better visibility to my mold design etc….

30 Mold Opening
Select / Select slider_demo/ and select a edge will is parallelto the slider_demo/ enter /Select cav_demo/ select anedge/enter / Selectcore_demo/select an edge/enter/Done
I can easily simulate the mold opening in this environment.
Let me start with slider component movement with 100mm distance, then cavity insert with
100mm and follow by core insert with negative value -100mm….
As you can see now, the mold insert opens. The core, cavity and slider components were allcreated right in front you very eyes in less then 20 minutes. This shows the user friendlyefficiency of the Pro/ENGINEER Mold Design Package…..
Now, I will be proceeding to Mold Base Assembly Design…..
31.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
File / Erase / Not Display / OK (toaccept all the in session files)
PLEASE remove all the mold design files (in session) from the hard disk. ERASE NOT
DISPLAY and remove all files in session..
This would ensure the smoothness of EMX demo later on….
NOTE: change your working directory to /mold directory

Let’s start a new EMX file, give a project name and for the part prefixname (it can be any name for Project name as well as the Part Prefix name), as you cansee, EMX creates all the necessary required datum planes and datum points in a skeletonmodel automatically, which also means, all the mold components will be located at their rightlocation automatically….EMX will automatically create a Style that will set all EMX plates to wireframe mode. Thename of this style is specified in the EMX option “ NAME_COMP_DISPLAY” – default nameis Style0001.
33. Assemble Mold Assembly
Select / select/select on Cavity_1 andMOLD_DEF_CSYS as assembly

34. Classify moldcomponents
Select / change Modeltype ofmold_design_demo to insertassembly and cav to insert FH
/ check the option “Use theselected insert assembly outline”
Before entering Moldbase Design EMX can measure the outline of the current insertassembly. This is done in Project > classify function. The second meaning of this function is
to identify the insert assembly components.
Specify at least one assembly as “Insert assembly”. Then the option “use the selected insertassembly outline” can be activated. The inserts can be defined as MH (Moving Half) or FH(Fix Half). They will be placed on a Side Layer and Simplified Representation (their name isdefined with EMX option: NAME_MOVING_HALF and NAME_FIX_HALF). Demonstrate thisby activating EMX >View > Show > Moving Half and ...Fix half. Finally reset display toMaster

Selecting the Moldbase Assembly Definition icon will allow you access to Mold Base Assembly library… The previously measured size of the insert assembly is displayed as
blue box. MoldBase Assembly window which help to visualize the size ratio of moldbase andthe workpiece etc….
In this case, we can easily see that the work insert is bigger then the default mold baseassembly (hasco 156x156) which make no sense at all….
Select supplier name “Futaba_s”. The minimum Size for this moldbase is 150x150 which is
still too small. Select size 350x350. Prompt “Use this size” question with . With thehelp of this advance EMX UI it is easy to verify if the selected moldbase size matches to theoutline of the core insert assembly ….imagine how much time you have already saved intrying to figure out the ratio between the work insert and the main mold base assembly etc
Now you have two options to continue moldbase design: Add plates, locatings rings, leaderpins step by step manually using the Insert functions ...ORLoad a complete moldbase definition from the EMX library.This is what we want to do now. Select File > Load assembly.
EMX has the most up-to-date moldbase library available, from all the branded mold basesuppliers world wide such as FUTABA, HASCO, DME etc (you may name other mold basetype which are not in EMX library now but we can customize it and add it to our standardmoldbase library very easily).Let me select Futaba SC-Type for my design (you can run thru some of the available
moldbase and show the pictures…) and PLEASE don’t forget to select this option will help us to keep the workpiece size in our new selected moldbaseetc. The components of the selected SC-Type are displayed as preview in Moldbase
Definition. Close the Load Assembly dialog box with . The desired moldbase assemblyis regenerated in 3D. Drawings will be created automatically for each plate. Additionalcomponents such as screws and leader pins are not assembled at this point. Theirspecification is stored to the skeleton so that the components can be assembled later.

Now, I would like to get EMX to optimize my moldbase design, as you can see the A platemay be too thin for my work, let me change it to 70 (talk about the smart UI updates instantly
etc)Rightclick bush to change length of GBA to 69 mm.
Same for B plate etc
Besides the plates, I can also change the value on other mold components such as Leaderpin, for this design I think the length needs to be longer, let’s try 107 etc (talk about thesmart UI again etc)
37. Mold Base AssemblyDefinition
RMB click on the return pin
/ change the diameter to 15
Then from the MoldbaseDefinition window to Accept themold base assembly
Return pin can be changed too. Let me change the diameter to smaller size maybe 15 mm,as you can see EMX is not only helping me in designing my moldbase but it also does help
in further optimizations of my mold design. What else you could ask for more?? ; ) (talkabout the smart UI again etc)
Again, EMX is tailor made for the plastic mold designer….especially with the smart UI whichwould definitely help in preventing human mistakes and yet increase design quality etc
highlight AGAIN to EXISTING CUSTOMERS: In EMX4.1 the entire moldbase (allmodifications made in 2D UI) had been regenerated in 3D after the moldbase definitiondialog box was closed. In EMX5.0 this regeneration takes place whenever you’ve commiteda modification. So the regeneration status of the pro/ENGINEER models can easily becontrolled step by step!

Let’s select LRBD type and noting the diameter depth is 15 and diameter is 100… , I canalso modify the depth of cut for the locating ring very easily by just changing the value in theUI option.
41. Add more mold
components
Insert / Equipment / Spruebushing / Select type SBBH / 16 /2.0 / 90 / 11.0/ 15.0.
Enter offset “-5”.
Let me show you how to add Sprue Bushing in my mold base assembly here…NOTE: it take longer to open dialog box due to huge amount of Spruebush instance fromMisumi! As you can see, all the mold components structure have been build in to all the EMX datawhich means the Spru Bushing component is smart enough to be able to locate itself at theright location in every molds created with EMX…
Enter the offset of the spruebush from the top side of the clamping plate (-5).
If I change the value in this option, Spru Bushing component will be moved according to thevalue I enter…etc. Do not forget to change also T1 value of cutout depth!

Let me show you how EMX can create a slider unit in less then 3 minutes….
First, a coordinate system is required for my slider, let’s select CS1, EMX automaticallyselects an angle pin mate plane for me, the top plane of the A plate …. EMX also selects themoving half plane, the top plane of the B plate.
Now, these are the standard slider units available in EMX < run thru some of the sliders>
I am going to select HASCO and Single Locking as my slider for my mold design….I need to blank the quilt which will be used for the cut out…..
And all these quilts have been assigned to a layer call 00_BUW_CUTQUILTS, What youneed to do is to blank that layer and all the quilts will be hidden immediately.
As long as you check the size you should not generate the cutouts!

Making ejector pins is one of the most simple but time consuming process in mold making,can you imagine if you have to assemble 100-150 Ejector pins in your moldbase assembly?
That would take up lots of your design time ….
However, with EMX, you can create ejector pins in seconds….
In EMX, datum points control all the ejector pin locations. You can pattern the datum pointsand update the ejector pins instantly…
In this case, I would like to select one of the datum points that were create in the Camerapart….
The Ejector Pin UI, has many different types of ejector pins available ….let me select Z41,diameter 1.0
Now, you can see, all the ejector pins created automatically in seconds…Spin the model around to show the ejector pins …This is Powerful !!
