Features: Pro/ENGINEER is a very popular three-dimensional design software that includes various functions such as part design, product assembly, mold development, NC machining, sheet metal design, casting design, automatic measurement, mechanism simulation, and stress analysis. Mastercam has almost become synonymous with CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing), covering all aspects of product machining from CNC turning to CNC milling, and wire electrical discharge machining. Properly utilizing Pro/ENGINEER and Mastercam can significantly shorten the time for users to develop and manufacture products. This book introduces the combined application of Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire2.0 and Mastercam9.0 in three-dimensional modeling design, mold design, and CNC machining through practical examples. The accompanying CD-ROM provides animated teaching files for each example operation. By studying this book and the supporting CD-ROM, readers can understand and master the three-dimensional modeling concepts of Pro/ENGINEER, mold design methods, and the powerful CNC machining functions of Mastercam. This book can serve as supplementary teaching material for universities, colleges, and various CAD/CAM training classes, as well as a reference for industrial design personnel and mold CNC programming professionals.
