1. Die: various dies and tools used in industrial production, and the required products are obtained through injection molding, blow molding, extrusion, die casting or forging, melting and stamping. In short, molds are tools used to make molded products.

2. Fixture: refers to the device used to fix the processed object in the process of mechanical manufacturing, so that it occupies the correct position for construction or testing.

3. Checking fixture: it is a simple tool used by industrial production enterprises to control various sizes of products (such as aperture and space size).

4. Fixture: it is a large-scale tool for carpentry, ironwork, locksmith, machinery, electric control and other handicrafts.

5. Tooling and equipment: refers to various tools used in the manufacturing process.

Second, the difference

They are different in applicable objects and functions.

1, applicable object difference

(1) Die is suitable for unformed workpieces.

(2) The fixture is suitable for forming workpieces.

(3) The fixture is suitable for industrial products.

(4) The fixture is suitable for large workpieces.

Devices used to quickly, conveniently and safely install workpieces in any process of technological process, such as welding fixture, inspection fixture, assembly fixture, machine tool fixture, etc.

Among them, machine tool fixture is the most common, often referred to as fixture, and fixture belongs to tooling.

2. Role differences

(1) The mold is used to shape the workpiece.

(2) The fixture is used to fix the position of the workpiece to be detected.

(3) The fixture is used for product inspection.

(4) Fixture is used to process large workpieces.

The raw material strip is stamped by the die, and the stamped product strip is stamped (cut, partially formed or bent) by the fixture again, so as to obtain the product that the customer wants.

The checking fixture is suitable for mass production, which is more time-saving and labor-saving than using general measuring tools. At the same time, the fixture is also a kind of fixture.

Extended data:

Moulds are widely used for blanking, die forging, cold heading, extrusion, powder metallurgy parts pressing, pressure casting, compression molding or injection molding of engineering plastics, rubber, ceramics and other products.

Generally, it includes two parts: a moving die and a fixed die (or a male die and a female die), which can be separated and combined. When parting, the parts are taken out, and when closing, the blank is injected into the mold cavity for molding.

Die is a kind of precision tool with complex shape, which bears the bulging force of blank and requires high structural strength, stiffness, surface hardness, surface roughness and machining accuracy. The development level of mold production is one of the important symbols of mechanical manufacturing level.
