Productive
electrode construction
Mold companies are constantly confronted with
new challenges in higher quality and
simultaneously compliance with cost and
timeframes. thinkLine Elektrode optimizes the
electrode process from design to production. The
automation of labor intensive processes like
extensions of shapes, generating of electrodes
and documentation considerable reduce the
working time and help to avoid mistakes.
Intelligent management of electrode / project
thinkLine Elektrode
includes the management of electrode data and
projects for single and multiple electrodes.
This minimizes the administrative time and
therefore results in considerable more
productivity.A clear view with tree structure
comprises informationen of electrode geometry,
position, coordinate system, material, holder
and dimensions. The administration is working on
global models and even outside built electrode
geometries could be included afterwards.
Working
clear and comfortable
The structured user
interface of thinkLine Elektrode allows easy,
fast and productive working. Without disturbing
command lines and dialog fields the user is
fully concentrated on electrode design. A huge
number of automatism ensure fast electrode
calculation and automatic generation of
documentation for production.

Automated electrode
construction
thinkLine Elektrode assists the user in
describing the electrode. The user is guided in
assigning names, position, contour of raw
electrode, type, material, dimensions and lower
dimensions. Holders are available in an
extensive integrated library and are shown with
the electrode. Electrodes could be generated
from an reference geometry (solids or shapes).
This includes the automatic recognition of
geometry and shapes in selected areas, the
assignment of angles, tangential extensions and
automatic calculation of electrode size. At any
time the user may have hold on the automatic
instructions. A simulated preview of the
electrode with holder allows final fixing of the
dimensions and position. Collisions are
recognized early in time and mistakes are
avoided,
Production
oriented documentation
thinkLine Elektrode
supports the automatic generation of production
oriented drawings and documentation. This
includes the electrodes in detailed views,
position, arrangement drawings, dimensions and
start position. The listing is done in HTML,
Excel or as text and includes all information
about the electrodes, dimensions, positions,
characteristics and important notes.
Machine output thinkLine
Elektrode generates for OPS-Ingersoll Multiprog
erosion machines start programs
for positioning and
handing over all needed technology parameters.
Data which are captured during the electrode
generation are sent to the machine. These are
basic data of the electrode, start position,
material, technologies and more informations.
