The major of mold design and manufacturing refers to mold processing technology and production and maintenance. Can be engaged in the design and manufacture of molds and tooling required for enterprise production, mold assembly and debugging, mold business operation and management. So what is the prospect of mold design and manufacturing? 　　 In mold manufacturing, mold design and mold processing are often inseparable. Therefore, in addition to design technology and processing technology, we must also pay attention to some comprehensive technologies, whose development direction will have a significant impact on mold manufacturing. At present, information technology with microelectronic technology and software technology as its core and digitization and networking as its characteristics is influencing all sectors of society with a strong penetration force. Informatization of traditional manufacturing is imperative.　　 Through the analysis of mold design and manufacturing prospects, since China developed mold computer-aided design (CAD) technology in the 1980s, this technology has been recognized and developed rapidly. Mold Computer Aided Engineering Analysis (CAE) technology, which was developed in the 1990s, is now also used by many companies. It has a significant effect on shortening the mold manufacturing cycle and improving mold quality. In recent years, the price of hardware and software of mold CAD/CAM technology has been reduced to a level generally acceptable to small and medium-sized enterprises, which has created good conditions for its further popularization; the network-based CAD/CAM/CAE integrated system structure has begun to take shape. It will solve the problem that the traditional hybrid CAD/CAM system cannot meet the requirements of the division of labor and cooperation in the actual production process; the intelligence of CAD/CAM software will gradually increase; the 3D design of plastic parts and molds and the 3D analysis of the molding process will be used in China's molds Play an increasingly important role in industry.　　
Through the analysis of mold design and manufacturing prospects, in addition to mold CAD/CAE technology, mold process design Quality cap mould/mold is also very important. Computer Aided Process Design (CAPP) technology has begun to be applied in Chinese mold companies. Since most molds are produced in a single piece, and the process regulations are different from those of mass-produced products, it is difficult to apply CAPP technology, and it is difficult to have CAPP software suitable for various molds and different mold companies. In order to better apply CAPP technology, mold companies must do a good job in development and research.　　 With the rapid development of various new technologies, automatic mold processing systems have emerged abroad.
The mold automatic processing system should have the following characteristics: reasonable combination of multiple machine tools; equipped with accompanying positioning fixture or positioning plate; complete fixture and tool CNC library; complete CNC flexible synchronization system and quality monitoring and control system. Some people call the machine tool that completes roughing and finishing at the same time as a mold processing system. These will be developed in the future. With the development of industrialization driven by informatization, China's mold design, processing and manufacturing technology is catching up with the international level, and corporate management technology is in line with the international level, but all employees of Chinese mold industry enterprises must study hard and firmly grasp the development of world mold technology Direction, give full play to subjective initiative, down-to-earth and confidently create a bright future. The mold design and manufacturing market has a bright future.
