1. Import product shape:
If the product shape is a 3D model, you can use the import function of UG software to import the product shape into UG. UG supports a variety of file formats, such as STL, STEP, IGES, etc. Select the appropriate file format and import the product shape.
2. Create a mold shape:
In UG software, the mold shape similar to the product shape is created by using modeling tools. You can use UG modeling functions, such as drawing lines, to create surfaces. According to the size, geometric characteristics and design requirements of the product shape, the mold shape similar to the product shape is created.
3. Make the cutting path:
Using the cutting path generation tool of UG software, the appropriate cutting path is generated on the mold shape. According to the geometric characteristics of product shape and processing requirements, select appropriate tools and cutting strategies to generate cutting paths.
4. Machining the mold:
In actual machining, according to the cutting path, the mold is machined with CNC machine tools. The cutting path is converted into the corresponding machining instruction, and the NC machine tool controls the die to cut the material.
Please note that this is only a brief introduction to the general steps of copying the product shape into the mold in UG software. The actual operation may be more complicated and needs to be adjusted according to the specific design requirements and the limitations of processing equipment. If you are a beginner, it is recommended to refer to the user manual of UG software or seek the help of experts in related fields.
