Tooling has lived through substantial changes. The toolmaker has been, first of all, the designer and maker in one and the same person. Then, in the second part of the 20th century the division took place in the form of the increased specialization. Three function specialists: the mold designer, function makers of mold elements, and the assembling operators, toolmakers exist. The introduction of computers caused new redistribution of tasks. The mold designer activities (CAD) are followed by the mold manufacturing-planning phase (CAP), which includes also the software development for NC- equipment (CAM). The function element makers started to disappear they are materials machining-operators. A new reintegration, of part and mold designer functions will be discussed. |
