Features: This book introduces mold design using Pro/E Wildfire, combining software tutorials with theoretical knowledge through practical mold design examples. It achieves a balance between depth and simplicity, allowing readers with mold design experience to quickly become familiar with Pro/E mold design, while also strengthening the foundational knowledge of those with Pro/E design skills. The design methods presented in the book are also highly applicable as references for product design in other fields. Through a step-by-step teaching approach, the book explains key Pro/E Wildfire 2.0 mold design functions—such as mold design workflows, parting surface design, core and cavity patching, parting techniques, gating system design, core assembly, mold opening actions, and mold inspection—using carefully selected real-world cases. Readers can learn to use Pro/E efficiently and accurately for paperless mold design in a progressive manner. The accompanying CD-ROM includes graphical and demonstration files for all chapter examples. This book is suitable for readers with a basic foundation in computer-aided drafting. It can serve as a textbook for mold design or computer-aided design programs, as well as a self-study guide for engineers using Pro/E for mold design. The design methods presented are also highly applicable as references for product design in other fields.
