Prototype Progressive Die Design
Publicada el 2026-08-01
Descripción de la oferta
I need a complete progressive die designed to produce a stainless-steel 304 part for a prototype run. The goal is to have every operation—blanking, bending, drawing, and any other required forming—integrated into a single die so that the finished piece comes off the press in one hit. You will work from my dimensional drawing of the part (supplied after award) and deliver: • 3D CAD model of the entire die set • 2D fully-dimensioned manufacturing drawings for each plate, punch, and insert • Strip layout showing material utilization and station-by-station progression • Exploded view or assembly instructions that clarify build order and critical tolerances Preferred tools are SolidWorks, NX, or CATIA, but I’m open to other industry-standard platforms as long as you can provide STEP and DXF outputs. Please design for a standard 80-ton mechanical press; list any press-specific requirements if they differ. Acceptance criteria 1. The strip layout must keep burr direction consistent and material waste below 15 %. 2. All forming radii must meet SS304 minimum bend guidelines to avoid cracking. 3. Hole and feature positions must hold ±0.05 mm in the simulation or calculated tolerance stack. 4. All files open error-free in the stated CAD package and in neutral formats. If you have recent examples of similar prototype progressive dies, send screenshots or brief descriptions with your bid so I can gauge fit.
